The Cat in the Hat. Horton the Elephant. Gertrude McFuzz. Yertle the Turtle. These and other beloved characters leap out of the vivid imagination of Dr. Seuss onto the stage of the Ruth N. Halls theatre, as we proudly launch both the 2007-2008 season and our new B.F.A. program in musical theatre. Writers LynnAhrens and Stephen Flaherty (Ragtime, Once on This Island) celebrate the universal appeal of Seuss’ books, creating a witty and engaging musical that appeals to audiences of all ages, and when Horton reminds us that “A person’s a person no matter how small,” suddenly we are all five years old again. What a great way to start any school year Kindergarten through graduateschool!

“This Seussical is more than pleasing;It’s sassy, smart and full of teasing. In fact, as I will tell you here:The show deserves a big two-fish cheer.” ----Chicago Sun-Times
