Horton the Elephant, Gertrude McFuzz, Mayzie La Bird and Sour Kangaroo are all characters from a strange and magical land set to arrive in the West End and we’ve got the first photos of just what these bizarre bunch will look like.
While Horton might not have a trunk and the Bird Girls might look more fashionable than feathery, there’s no doubt that Dr Seuss’ legendary surrealist fun is set to take the Arts theatre by storm this Christmas when new family musical Seussical begins on 4 December with the iconic Cat in the Hat ready and waiting to create some mischief.
Check out our gallery above by photographer Darren Bell for your first glimpse of company members Kirsty Marie Ayers, Jessica Parker, Clark Devlin, Natalie Green, Joe Morrow, Philip Scutt, Joe McCourt, Mathew Waters, Amy Punter, Tanya Shields and Jennifer Low as they’ll look in Tony Award winners Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens’ fantastical, songtastical, bombastical Seussical.
