We are bringing to life the vibrant world of Seuss like never before in our repurposed Seussical JR., with a current interpretation of the Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, Gertrude McFuzz, and Mayzie La Bird you may see some similarities to our current pop culture as we explore relevant social challenges in our community. The musical co-conceived by Lynn Ahrens, Stephen Flaherty and Eric Idle, Seussical JR. combines Dr. Seuss tales using a range of styles from Latin to pop, swing to gospel, and R&B to funk.
Community partner, Live Green Lexington has facilitated collection drives for our set and will be at all performances to provide educational materials to the community on the importance of recycling properly.
ACTivate has also partnered with the Kenwick Community Center to provide a FREE week of workshops to the neighborhood. This group of emerging young artists will perform one number at the Pay-What-You-Can Performance on Saturday night.
“It takes a lot of creativity and focus to bring this whimsical world to life, while communicating its subtle themes and meaningful lessons,” says MTI President and CEO , Drew Cohen. “
“ There are so many relevant themes in Seussical JR., including the idea that a ‘person’s a person no matter how small’ “says ACTivate Artistic Director, Vanessa Becker Weig and Horton the Elephant
“ In our partnership with Live Green Lexington and our repurposed set, we are hoping to enlighten our cast and audiences about the importance of reuse in the community because ‘unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better, it’s not.’ ” says Seussical JR. Director, Emma Becker and The Lorax.
