Audiences transported to world of Dr Seuss by Seussical cast and crew

When the applause finally died down after the last performance of Seussical, the cast and crew had indeed proven that “anything’s possible”, in the words of one of the memorable musical numbers.

Two terms of rehearsal led to three wonderful performance nights in a professional theatre space, complete with an exceptional set, extraordinary lighting features, creative props and whimsical sound effects.

Seussical is a magical show set in the world of Dr Seuss, featuring Horton, The Grinch and The Cat in the Hat, among a myriad of other famous characters from classic stories.

Each night, audiences found themselves captivated by the sprawling storyline of Seussical, joining JoJo (Lucy Elton) as he wanders through the world of imagination, meeting friends and confronting foes along the way.

Congratulations to the whole cast for their dedication, commitment, and creativity in pulling off a truly ambitious project with such panache and skill!
