Next Generation Arts Council is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of "Seussical the Musical, JR." opening in early March at the Gaithersburg Arts Barn. This delightfully entertaining show by musical writing team Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty features a lively and talented group of young performers ages 10-15. Weekends, March 8-17. Fridays at 7:30 PM, Saturdays at 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM, Sundays at 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM.

Seussical the Musical, JR. revolves around a curious child named JoJo and Horton the Elephant, a kind-hearted and loyal creature who hears a small speck of dust speaking to him. This speck of dust is actually the home of the Whos, a tiny civilization living on a clover. Horton vows to protect the Whos, even though he is ridiculed and doubted by the other inhabitants of the Jungle of Nool, while JoJo learns about the power of friendship, collaboration and imagination.

Tickets for Seussical the Musical, JR. will be available for purchase for $15 at the door at the Arts Barn, or can be purchased in advance online at gaithersburgmd.gov/recreation/performing-arts/theater/seussical-jr.
