SUMMARY:C.R.O.W. presents Seussical
DESCRIPTION:Seussical is a fantastical\, magical\, musical extravaganza! \nC.R.O.W. will present 6 Performances at the Florence Events Center! \nFriday\, April 17th at 7 pm\nSaturday\, April 18th at 7 pm\nSunday\, April 19th at 2 pm\nFriday\, April 24th at 7 pm\nSaturday\, April 25th at 7 pm\nSunday\, April 26th at 2 pm \nTickets are on sale now through the Florence Event Center Box Office. 541-997-1994 or www.eventcenter.org. \nABOUT THE SHOW: \nTony winners\, Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (Lucky Stiff\, My Favorite Year\, Once on This Island\, 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 child 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 Whos. \nThe Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton\, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust that contains the Whos\, 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 Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers\, but he must guard an abandoned egg\, left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule\, danger\, kidnapping and a trial\, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. \nUltimately\, the powers of friendship\, loyalty\, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant. The central theme of the show is about following your heart\, and always being true to your convictions. \nFor more information\, visit www.crowkids.com/seussical
