THE latest offering from RAODS Youth at Romsey’s Plaza Theatre, Seussical Jr. is based on the works of Dr Seuss and weaves together his most famous tales, Horton the elephant, the cat in the hat and other characters from at least 15 of his books.
The Cat in the Hat is the narrator of the show.
The performance follows the adventures of Horton, an elephant who one day hears voices coming from a speck of dust.
He soon discovers that within this speck exists the smallest planet in the universe.
On this tiny planet lives a race of creatures known as the “Whos”.
Although ridiculed by the other animals in the Jungle of Nool for believing in something he cannot see, Horton stubbornly persists in his belief that the Whos exist.
Travelling everywhere from the Jungle of Nool to McElligot’s Pool, some of the characters fall in love.
Other characters have desperate adventures, and some even save the world.
- Seussical Jr runs from Thursday to Saturday. Call 01794 512987 or online at: plazatheatre.com
