FREDERICKSBURG
THEATER ACADEMY
FALL SEMESTER 2nd - 6th Grade
Horton the Elephant, the Cat in the Hat and all of your favorite Dr. Seuss characters spring to life onstage in Seussical KIDS, a fantastical musical extravaganza.
Transporting audiences from the Jungle of Nool to the Circus McGurkus, the Cat in the Hat, our narrator, tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust containing tiny people called the Whos, including Jojo, a Who child, who gets in trouble for thinking too many "thinks." Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family, and community are challenged and emerge triumphant!
