''Oh, the thinks you can think'' when Dr. Seuss's best-loved stories collide and cavort in an unforgettable musical caper! Adapted from the Broadway version, this adaptation especially for young audiences features thirteen actors and enhanced production values. Seussical is TheatreworksUSA' biggest show ever!

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.''

On that small speck of dust lives JoJo, an imaginative young Who. JoJo has
astounding ''thinks,'' in which anything's possible, but his parents
believe this creativity is inappropriate for the son of the Mayor of Who-Ville.

Meanwhile, the one-feathered bird, Miss Gertrude McFuzz, desperately
wants Horton to notice her. Maybe, she thinks, she just needs a more
impressive tail. At the same time, the amazingly lazy Maysie La Bird connives, cajoles and convinces Horton to sit on her egg while she goes off on a spree.

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!
