"Oh the thinks you can think" when Dr. Seuss's best-loved stories collide and cavort in an unforgettable musical caper! Will the planet of Who survive? Will Horton pay attention to Gertrude? Will Maysie ever return for her egg? Dr. Seuss's beloved classic characters find themselves intertwined in an incredible crazy-quilt adventure in which the power of imagination and the most miraculous "think" ever save the day.
The Cat in the Hat is the host and emcee (and all-around mischief-maker) in this romp through the Seuss classics. When the sweet, good-natured elephant Horton hears a small cry for help coming from a small speck of dust, he promises to rescue and guard it because "a person's a person, no matter how small."
Easy on the ear and very pop, conveying, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community, how they are challenged and emerge triumphant, in a story that makes you laugh and cry. This is a heart warming, kid-friendly story that also won't insult an adult's intelligence.
Don't miss the pre-show events including The Cat in the Hat Parties, Seusical Carnival and free pre-show reception.
Shows will be held June 1 and 2 at 7:30 p.m., and on June 3 at 2:30 and 7 p.m.
Tickets are $10. A ticket is required for ages 3 and up. More information and to buy tickets: lifelightarts.com
