Tony winners Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (LUCKY STIFF, MY FAVORITE YEAR, ONCE ON THIS ISLAND, and RAGTIME) have lovingly brought to life all of our favorite Dr. Seuss characters, including Horton the Elephant, The Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, lazy Mayzie, and a little boy with a big imagination--JoJo. The colorful characters transport us from the Jungle of Nool to the Circus McGurkus to the invisible world of the Who's.

The Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust containing Who's, including JoJo, a Who child sent off to military school for thinking too many "thinks." Horton faces a double challenge--not only must he protect the Who's from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left to his care by the irresponsible Mayzie LaBird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping, 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.

Starring Augie Abatecola (The Cat in the Hat), Joey Sanzaro (Horton), Lauren Lucksavage (Gertrude McFuzz), Lauren Moore (Mayzie LaBird), Shannon Stout (Sour Kangaroo), Matt Stout (General Ghengis Kahn/Yertle the Turtle), Tim Stout (Wickersham Brother), Jonathan Quigley (Wickersham Brother), James McAlvanagh (Wickersham Brother), Mickey Connolly (Wickersham Brother), Sami Naus (Bird Girl), Carolyn Savoia (Bird Girl), Alyssa DiPanfilo (Bird Girl), Allison Muccioli (Bird Girl), Jackson Fanelli (The Grinch), Ryan Fanelli (Mr. Mayor), Kayla Moore (Mrs. Mayor), Gabriella Palminteri (Mrs. Mayor), Lexi Naus (JoJo), Mackenzie Larrabee (JoJo), Molly Perrine (Baby Kangaroo), Grace Fanelli (Elephant Bird) and Amanda Nirenberg (Vlad Vladikoff).
