A person’s a person, no matter how small – and to prove that point, Elgin Park Secondary is unleashing a small army of Circus McGurkus performers, Wickersham Brothers and Bird Girls, not to mention Horton the Elephant and the Grinch.
All these characters and many more are featured in the school’s production of Seussical the Musical, which runs Feb. 22-26. Performances will be at 7:30 p.m. at the school, 13484 24 Ave. The Broadway hit, by Steven Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, is inspired by the beloved characters and stories created by writer and illustrator Theodor Seuss Geisel, best known to generations of children and parents as Dr. Seuss.
Director Stan Engstrom said Elgin Park’s production is the full Broadway version, which also incorporates “some of the darker side” of Seuss’ vision.
Tickets are available at the school or 604-538-6678.
