The Hangar's KIDDSTUFF season finishes with Seussical Jr., running August 23-25. Based on the classic children's books, this delightful musical centers around Dr. Seuss's beloved characters. Horton the Elephant lights up the stage with the Cat in the Hat, the Grinch, Mayzie La Bird, Gertrude McFuzz, and more! Horton the Elephant finds himself faced with a double challenge - protecting his tiny friend Jojo (and all the invisible Whos) from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left to his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird.
Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant. The Tony Award winning lyricist and composer Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty have teamed up again to create Seussical Jr., which will performed by the students of the Hangar's Next Generation School of Theatre.
All KIDDSTUFF performances take place at the Hangar Theatre and run Thursdays through Saturdays at 10 am and 12 pm.
