Review: Seussical Jr.

Many of us grew up on the classic children books by Dr. Seuss. Books such as the Cat in the Hat and Horton Hears a Who. The Palmer Trinity Middle School Thespians recently performed the musical rendition of Dr. Seuss’s world. It included many characters such as the people of Whoville, Horton the Elephant, the Grinch, and Gertrude McFuzz. They were all brought together by the wonderful music, set, and unique story line.
The set itself was very well done and made you feel like you were inside a Dr. Seuss book. The lighting team did an excellent job with keeping a fun and mysterious atmosphere. The colorful backdrops and trees were very eye catching. My personal favorite aspect of the set were the Who houses painted on steep mountainsides. The costume designs were also very creative and served their purpose. All these things coupled with the cute and catchy musical numbers really added up to a wonderful show that I very much enjoyed.
