WPCNR STAGE DOOR. From Pia Haas, Westchester Broadway Theatre. May 27, 2011:
Tony winners Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (“Ragtime”, “Once on this Island”) have lovingly brought to life all of our favorite Dr Seuss characters in a musical with mass appeal. The show is light and effervescent and draws on pop influences ranging from the Beach Boys to Gospel and Salsa to, yes, the theme from “Shaft.” SEUSSICAL proves to be an evening of theatre for everyone, of all ages! The powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant in a story that makes you laugh and cry.
Family Theatre Productions, brings together some of the very best theatre professionals with talented young actors for a great family experience begginning June 16.
Singin' in the Rain wraps up it's last two weeks (see WPCNR review of the current classic show.) For show information, go to www.broadwaytheatre.com.
