Jojo/Boy - A Thinker. He's a smart child with a wild imagination. By the end of the show, he learns what it means to be a responsible member of his community, using the power and possibilities of his own Thinks. Vocal range top: B4 Vocal range bottom: Ab3
The Cat in the Hat - The essence of mischief, fun, and imagination. The Cat stirs things up and causes trouble but always sets things right again. He helps JoJo discover the power of his own imagination as they create the story of Seussical JR. together. Vocal range top: D5 Vocal range bottom: Bb3
Horton the Elephant - A gentle giant. Think of Horton as a big-hearted, blue-collar guy who is steadfast, responsible, and always tries to do the right thing. He is sympathetic and receptive to the world around him. He believes in the inherent goodness of the world, so it's no surprise that he always looks for the good in others. Horton goes on quite a journey throughout the show but stays true to himself, even when the going gets tough. Vocal range top: E4 Vocal range bottom: A2
Mr. Mayor - Mr. Mayor and Mrs. Mayor are parents trying hard to raise a child with a big imagination. These Whos may get aggravated with JoJo, but they love him dearly. They try their best to make the right choices as parents, even if JoJo doesn't always understand them. Vocal range top: E4 Vocal range bottom: C3
Mrs. Mayor - Mr. Mayor and Mrs. Mayor are parents trying hard to raise a child with a big imagination. These Whos may get aggravated with JoJo, but they love him dearly. They try their best to make the right choices as parents, even if JoJo doesn't always understand them. Vocal range top: Bb4 Vocal range bottom: A3
Gertrue McFuzz - Very self-conscious about her one-feather tail. Gertrude gains confidence throughout the show, changing from an anxious, nervous, shy bird into someone whose self-worth doesn't rest on her appearance. In other words, Gertrude realizes what's truly important in her life. Vocal range top: Eb5 Vocal range bottom: F#3
Mayzie La Bird - Self-centered, vain, and manipulative. She ultimately means no harm, but she's immature and makes selfish decisions. In giving up her egg to Horton once and for all, she has a moment of self-awareness - she realizes she isn't the kind of bird who would be a good parent, and she does the best thing she can for the egg. Vocal range top: Eb5 Vocal range bottom: G#3
Wickersham Brothers - The Wickersham Brothers, including Wickersham 1, Wickersham 2, and Wickersham 3, are not bad guys! They tease, play pranks, and get a kick out of making mischief, although often at another's expense. Vocal range top: B3Vocal range bottom: Ab2
Sour Kangaroo - Loud, brassy, and a lot of fun. She's got a lot of attitude but isn't mean - she's just very confident and unafraid to tell it like it is. Vocal range top: Eb5 Vocal range bottom: Bb3
Judge Yertle the Turtle - The authoritative judge who presides over Horton's trial at the end of the show. Vocal range top: F5 Vocal range bottom: F3
Bird Girls - The Bird Girls, including Bird Girl 1, Bird Girl 2, and Bird Girl 3, are a fabulous group of birds who know everything there is to know about the goings on in the jungle and support Mayzie throughout the show. Vocal range top: B4 Vocal range bottom: A3
