Seussical
The Musical
Book by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty - Co-conceived by Eric Idle
Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens - Music by Stephen Flaherty
"A fantastical, magical, musical extravaganza lovingly bringing to life all of our favorite Dr. Seuss characters, including Horton the Elephant, Gertrude McFuzz, Lazy Mayzie and all of the Whos of Whoville! These classic, colorful tales are seamlessly brought together by Jojo, a young boy and 'thinker of strange and wonderful thinks'! As each story unfolds you will marvel at how relevant and profound Seuss' subtle themes are; making this musical one that appeals to all ages. The score emrges as a Seussian gumbo of musical styles, ranging from Latin to pop, swing to gospel, and R&B to funk! So let your toes tap, your fingers snap, and your imagination run wild!"
