SEUSSICAL the Musical Runs Sept. 14-15

SEUSSICAL the Musical
Children’s Performing Arts of Miamisburg
Sept. 14-15
Riverfront Park [Miamisburg]

Official cast list |

The Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust that contains the Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to military school for thinking too many “thinks.” Horton faces a double challenge: not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping 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.

THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY
Dayton Playhouse

Directed by Tim Rezash

The Bridges of Madison County is a romantic drama that explores the emotional complexities of love, choices, and the impact of decisions made in a person’s life. The story revolves around a passionate affair between a National Geographic photographer, Robert Kincaid, and an Italian-American housewife, Francesca Johnson, in the rural town of Winterset, Iowa, in 1965. The Bridges of Madison County is a poignant and evocative exploration of love, regret, and the profound impact of decisions on the course of one’s life. The musical adaptation successfully translates the emotional depth of the novel to the stage, creating a compelling and memorable theatrical experience.
