Northern VA Players Presents: Suessical The Musical Jr

Northern Virginia Players is thrilled to present Seussical, the Musical Jr. All of your favorite Dr. Seuss characters spring to life onstage in a fantastic musical extravaganza from TONY winners Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty.
Audiences will be transported from the Jungle of Nool, to Whoville, to the Circus McGurkus, as the Cat in the Hat, tells the story of Horton, an elephant, who discovers a speck of dust containing tiny people called the Whos. Jojo, a Who child who gets in trouble for thinking too many “thinks” and Horton develop a bond as Horton not only must protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but must also guard an abandoned egg that’s been left in his care by Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping, and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. With the help of Gertrude JoJo, Horton emerges triumphant!
