Seussical Jr
Horton the Elephant, the Cat in the Hat and all of your favorite Dr. Seuss characters spring to life onstage in Seussical JR., a fantastical musical extravaganza from Tony-winners, Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty.
Transporting audiences from the Jungle of Nool to the Circus McGurkus, the Cat in the Hat narrates the story of Horton the Elephant, who discovers a speck of dust containing tiny people called the Whos. Horton must protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, and he must also guard an abandoned egg that's been left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant!
We also have a senior group for ages 12 to 17, get in touch if you are interested in joining them!
Audition Packs
To audition for this production, please contact our team to book your place!
Everyone who wishes to be involved, must attend on Wednesday 8th January 2025 from 6:30pm till 8:30pm to take part in the group workshop. Those wishing to audition for main roles will be taken aside during the group workshop, to do a solo audition, using the relevant audition pack below (click on the character you wish to audition for - this will open up in a separate window).
If you wish to just simply be involved in the production and not necessarily have a main role, then you will not need to complete a solo audition and can just attend the group workshop! Everyone who attends gets a role! You must tell us in advance that you are attending though, so we can add you to our list.
Rehearsals are on Wednesdays from 6:30pm till 8:30pm, at Brownhills Community Centre, and £7.50 per session after the free of charge audition period.
There are a selection of character audition packs below, and these are only some of the many roles in the show. They all have different requirements and performance styles that will showcase different abilities.
Choose one that you feel you can confidently perform. We can then cast everyone into a role that suits them, based on what you show us.
