Grade 7 & 8 Actors Rehearse for Seussical JR Premiere

A cast of seventh and eighth grade students have been busily rehearsing for their upcoming production of Seussical JR, a fantastical musical journey that brings together all of Dr. Seuss’s beloved characters. Performances are Friday, March 13 at 6:00 p.m. and Saturday, March 14 at 6:00 p.m. in the Palandjian Arts Center. Complimentary tickets are available online at www.belmontday.brownpapertickets.com. Oh, the people you will see and the thinks you will think! In Seussical JR the cherished Dr. Seuss books have been turned into a magical musical extravaganza from Tony winners Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, featuring memorable Seuss characters, including The Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, Gertrude McFuzz, Mayzie LaBird, and all of the Whos of Whoville! The imagination runs wild amidst the toe-tapping cornucopia of musical styles, ranging from Latin to pop, swing to gospel, and R&B to funk. For kids and parents who grew up reading Dr. Seuss books, this musical stage show adaption of the classic stories will be fun for the whole family!
