Seussical
Playhouse on the Square, TNGood old Dr. Seuss thrives in technicolor
Seussical unfolds in verse to the familiar
Seussian gallop
“Not since the love-rock musical Hair has Playhouse on the
Square staged a more psychedelic production than the heart-tugging Seussical."
“…But in terms of flashbacks, this exuberant,
technicolored feast for the eyes and soul is just what a child of the '50s
– or '60s, '70s, '80s and '90s – needs to realize what a long, strange
trip it's been from innocence to – well, what I have now.”
“There are so many well-crafted performances in this show that you might
suppose Playhouse got hold of the B-way cast…”
”Director Gary John La Rosa (Fiddler on the Roof)
has elevated scenes fit for children's theater to thoughtful, intense revelations
that could teach adults a thing or two about loyalty, love, respect, etc. He
also keeps the show fast-paced and entertaining.”
“Like your favorite Dr. Seuss book, the musical gets inside your head
and reminds you why, generations from now, people will still be going back
for more ‘Green Eggs and Ham.’“
