Theatre is an amazing way to bring so many things learned in any classroom to life. Theatre is also a great building block for developing leadership skills, confidence and collaborative abilities as well as giving students hands-on experience with theater. This Junior Edition is a one-hour adaptation of Seussical, specially tailored for young actors.
Transporting audiences from the Jungle of Nool to the Circus McGurkus, the Cat in the Hat narrates the story of Horton the Elephant, who discovers a speck of dust containing tiny people called the Whos. Horton must protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, and he must also guard an abandoned egg that's been left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant!
There will be opportunities to participate onstage including main characters and ensemble/chorus as well as backstage, which includes learning to build and dress the set, learning to run the light and sound boards, and moving curtains and props.
No preparation is needed, auditions will consist of cold readings and songs from the show. Ages 8 - 18.
