Some of Seuss's most popular characters are cleverly woven into the main plot, which draws primarily from the favorite, "Horton Hears a Who." The Cat in the Hat narrates and is up to his usual antics, creating mischief throughout the show. Directed by Kathleen McCurdy, Seussical the Musical will be an interactive production as the cast reaches out to the audience and arrive from all different locations in Pickard Auditorium.
