The Suessical

The Suessical

By Jarret Fox

The Chaparral Singers musical, The Seussical, was last Friday and Saturday night. All of the weeks of hard work had paid off as the musical was a favorite in the community. For those of you who couldn't make here is how the story took place.

The two main characters were Roger Clark played as The Cat in the Hat, which became the narrator of the story and who got got Jojo, played by Dakota Young, in lots of imaginary trouble. The other main character was Alphonse Guerrero who played as Horton the elephant. The story played as the storyline of Horton Hears a Who. If you are not familiar with the story, Horton the elephant hears tiny voices on a "speck" of dust. Horton tells everybody but he is caught as being a fool and nobody thinks he is in his right mind. Horton tries to make everyone believe, with the help of the “Whos” that lived on the speck. Horton was in even more trouble though when Mayzie the bird, played by Cassidy Konkel, left her egg with Horton and he watched it until it hatched.

The whole Chaparral Singers group did a great job and their hard work definitely paid off. The musical was a hit both Friday and Saturday night as it was not only enjoyed by little ones but grown ups too! Great job Chaparral Singers!
