CCHS to Present First Musical in New Auditorium

By Ronni Chase Mar 28, 2026 | 9:16 AM

The CCHS Jet Theatrix Theatre 2 class is proud to announce the VERY FIRST MUSICAL in the new Jets Auditorium.

To help celebrate the musical’s 25th anniversary since its Broadway opening, we are proud to present Seussical Jr.  April 8-12, 2026.  The show runs approximately 70 minutes.  Adult admission will be $10 with child/student admission of $5.  This show is appropriate for ALL ages!

A little about the show:

Horton the Elephant, the Cat in the Hat and all of your favorite Dr. Seuss characters spring to life onstage in Seussical JR., a fantastical musical extravaganza from Tony-winners, Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty.

Transporting audiences from the Jungle of Nool to the Circus McGurkus, the Cat in the Hat narrates the story of Horton the Elephant, who discovers a speck of dust containing tiny people called the Whos. Horton must protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, and he must also guard an abandoned egg that’s been left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird.  Although Horton faces ridicule, danger 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!
