Show in a Week: Seussical KIDS

SUMMER WORKSHOP: SHOW IN A WEEK

Summer fun at The Nutshell as Dr. Seuss' best-loved characters collide and cavort in this unforgettable musical caper! 

If you love singing, dancing, or acting, spend a fabulous week on a non-stop thrill ride of musical fun, with unbelievable twists and turns as Horton the Elephant, the Cat in the Hat and all your favourite Dr. Seuss characters spring to life onstage in Seussical KIDS, a fantastical theatrical 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." Horton's challenge is twofold – not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but 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, kidnapping 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!

5-days to create a musical theatre spectacular with a performance to family and friends at the end of the week; what better way to start the summer?!
