Bravo Productions Presents SEUSSICAL JR. This Weekend

The first question is WHY? Seussical Jr. seems to be all the rage this season in our area, with schools at every grade level mounting the fantastic musical extravaganza of the favorite Dr. Seuss characters. Distinctive about BRAVO's rendition is a return to the notion that musical theatre is fundamentally about story telling and the Cat in the Hat (Luke LaMotta) as the narrator weaves this tale as a "play within a play", where Horton the Elephant (Matthew Milam), Gertrude McFuzz (Cynthia Jacobson), Mayzie La Bird (Madison Sherman) the Sour Kangaroo (Josie Stein) of the Jungle of Nool interact with the citizens of Whoville, led by Mr. and Mrs. Mayor (Mimi Lemar/Will Sexter or Ava Klugerman/Jayden Armour) and their young son Jojo (Lexi Blank). Horton, in discovering a speck of dust containing the tiny people called the Whos, also learns the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community.

Through the inspired vision of Director Valerie Issembert, Choreographer Laurie Newton and Music Director Michele Vicino, the cast of 26 2nd - 8th graders is at Horton's side throughout, either onstage or as audience members (and learning to transition between the two realities) as he faces ridicule, danger and a trial. Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him and ultimately the "little people" of Whoville triumph alongside those who inhabit the Jungle of Nool. Dr. Seuss's special brand of medicine promises a rollicking theatrical experience for the imaginative child in all of us. Continuing its tradition of productions especially suited for children, BRAVO will begin rehearsals for ANNIE KIDS (grades 1 - 6) and LEGALLY BLONDE Jr. (grades 5 - 10) in the fall.

SEUSSICAL Jr. Performances are Saturday, June 11 at 4:00 pm and 7:30 pm and Sunday, June 12 at 1:00 and 4:00 pm at the Randolph Road Theater, 4010 Randolph Road, Silver Spring, MD 20902. Tickets available online at https://www.showtix4u.com/index.php?submit=Search+for+Events¤t_client=0531001402191839 until June 11 for $19, and at the door for $22 (cash or check only).
