Kick-Off Summer With Dr. Seuss in Guilford

GUILFORD, CT – Guilford Youth and Family Services invites the community to start the summer with Dr. Seuss.

“Seussical Jr. the Musical” is set for Saturday, June 24, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. and Sunday, June 25, at noon.

All performances are in the Guilford High School Performing Arts Center, 605 New England Rd.

“Seussical Jr. the Musical” beings with a young boy named JoJo, who conjures up the Cat in the Hat with his powerful imagination and is whisked away to the Jungle of Nool for a fantastical adventure.

The Jr. in the show title indicates the score is vocally friendly for young voices, and the cast still includes classic Dr. Seuss Characters: Gertrude McFuzz, Mayzie LaBird, Horton and the Whos, along with many others and special guest appearances from The Grinch and Yertle the Turtle.

The Cat follows all the storylines and characters, focusing on Jojo, son of Mr. and Mrs. Mayor and the ultimate savior of the tiny world Whoville, thanks to his irresponsible and Imaginative “big think.”

Advanced Tickets can be purchased online. Tickets can also be purchased at the box office before each performance.

All tickets are $12.
