Musical Theatre Kids class – Seussical JR.

This popular show that ran on Broadway and toured the world transports 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!

Students learn:

…focus, imagination, creation, and theatre games, while rehearsing for a final performance.  A fun way to work with other young people! Students have the opportunity to develop theatre and public presentation skills as they rehearse for a production where they can make friends and work as a team.
