As long as a it makes you smile a musical doesn't haven't to make every bit of sense. The point of musical theatre is for the audience to escape into a entirely different world that will never known in "reality". Seussical is a DEFINITE example of that :)
I'm very disappointed that Cat wasn't in this. Seeing as I'm Cat in my musical. ); But otherwise than that, this is absolutely fantastic, amazing, ahhhh.
@smb052898 why the heck you putting a :( face. Not happy with the part? If that's true be happy you even got a part. Any part at all is a compliment, it shows people recognise your talent
For this version they're lip synching. It's too cold and open for the sound to travel correctly in an arena like that. It would sound awful no matter how well they were actually singing. On stage they always perform live, and they always do amazing, but not for a parade.
i had the great honor of getting to play mayzie in suessical. it required a lot of stamina and vocal practice, but it is one of my favorite roles ive played. :]
Im doing this right now we just started rehearsal its at the world famous Paramount theatre there were over 300 auditioners and I got Mr. Mayor and a Wickersham because there are 2 casts,the play will run 5 months!!!
who palys Gertrude in this??? I reconise her! idk where from. I'm doing this with a profetional theatre group and I get to be one of the bird girls they rock!
i really think they should have made horton look more like an elephant kinda like they did with the kangaroo giving her ears and such. he could have atleast gave him like a small trunk or tail
im pretty sure that o donnell and rigby were the cat in the hat (understudies probably) and carter was jojo. i read that some where..... correct me if im wrong.
i was just in this show with my theatre company! I was a wickersham sister! Great experiance. The costumes, cheroagraphy, and vocals were amazing. I wish seussical could have stayed on broadway longer.
oh yeah... i'm sure your school's production is better than the original broadway cast... yeah, you guys rock... and with an old man to boot... OR quite possibly you're just an idiot... i'm going to have to personally go with option... B.
The Wickershams in this one are phenomenal. The Sour Kangaroo was amazing, as well. Horton sounded a bit rushed in the beginning, I don't think he was as good as he could have been then, but he sounded way better later. The Bird Girls sounded good, and I loved Gertrude. Mayzie was completely amazing- she did a really good job. In short, this is freaking AWESOME
The original show only lasted a few months; with several casting changes including Rosie (the view), arron carter, and andrea martin.
Since it's closed; it has been performed in schools and community theaters all over the world. Plus a new version revival that was performed in Toronto, Canada.
Is it me, or does the monkey with the deepest voice look and sound like Daran Norris? The voice of Cosmo, Timmy's dad (Fairly Oddparents), and Gordy from Ned's Declassified?
