Arts Center of Cannon County Presents Dr. Seuss' THE CAT IN THE HAT

Not a word has been touched or added to Dr. Seuss' classic, ensuring anyone who's read the story will find themselves transported into the world they've long remembered and always imagined as Woodbury's Arts Center of Cannon County presents The Cat in the Hat for two Saturdays in May.

From the moment his tall, red-and- white-striped hat appears around the door, Sally and her brother know that The Cat in the Hat is the funniest, most mischievous cat they have ever met. With the trickiest of tricks and craziest of ideas he turns a rainy afternoon into an amazing adventure. But what will mum find when she gets home...? Will their house ever be the same? Can the kids clean up before Mom comes home? With some tricks (and a fish) and Thing Two and Thing One, with the Cat in The Hat, the fun's never done.

Directed by Scarlett Turney, this production features Tom "Foolery" Rayburn, Dan Jones, Matthew Hayes Hunter, and Chelsea Toombs.
