What is SEUSSICAL??

This is a musical based on the works of Dr. Seuss. But it isn’t just a string of his stories set to music. And it isn’t just one of his stories. In fact, it is a totally new, full-length musical with a story that weaves together his most famous tales and characters in unexpected ways.

The Seuss lexicon includes hundreds upon hundreds of wondrous characters, creatures, places and things. “Seussical” incorporates elements from at least 15 of his books, as well as many of his best-loved and most familiar characters.

Many of these characters have never met one another before, but they meet in our musical. And in the course of the evening, some will fall in love, some will have desperate adventures and some will save the world. And they’ll travel everywhere from the Jungle of Nool to McEligott’s Pool to Palm Beach.
