Junior Artists Company Presents: Seussical Jr
Company | Available
Horton the Elephant, the Cat in the Hat and all of your favorite Dr. Seuss characters spring to life onstage in Seussical JR., a fantastical musical extravaganza from Tony-winners, Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty.
Transporting audiences from the Jungle of Nool to the Circus McGurkus, the Cat in the Hat narrates the story of Horton the Elephant, who discovers a speck of dust containing tiny people called the Whos. Horton must protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, and 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 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!
This is a four week musical theatre camp, culminating in performances on June 26 and 27. There will be two casts.
Location: Templeton Academy is located at 631 2nd Avenue South. Camp will be held at Templeton; performances will be held at NCT, located at 25 Middleton Street. Parking for NCT is available at the Middleton St. entrance to the Richard Fulton Complex.
Extended Care: Before and after care are available at no additional cost. Before care begins at 7:30am (drop off at NCT - we will walk your student over to Templeton) and after care runs until 5:30pm (pick up from NCT). Extended care consists of unstructured free time where students will play independently. Students are welcome to bring a book or electronic device (that NCT is not responsible for). Individual activities (such as puzzles, coloring pages, and games) will be provided. We will also play a daily G or PG-rated movie.
