Students charm with Seuss
December 5, 2019
Every year starting just a few weeks into school, Tartan’s theatre begins preparing for the big day- the fall musical. This year’s fall theater performance was Seussical, an upbeat musical based on the well known Dr. Suess books. From Horton Hears a Who to many more of our childhood favorites. The play is a family friendly, toe tapping, comedic show. Anyone, any age would enjoy this amazing performance.
All of the actors and crew of Tartan, have put in great effort to make Seuss’s fantasies come alive on stage. From the actors putting on the performance to the crew in the back helping the actors make the stage come alive, all of their work paid off in the end. Watching friends and family perform or see the work they put in on making the stage, would make anyone’s chest fill up with pride.
All of the costumes were eye catching. The specific role of the job of the Who or the type of animal was quite obvious. You could easily tell the Who’s from the animals and even the job each Who had.
The stage was well built and made perfectly for the setting. The music, lighting, and props were quite impressive. Even with some troubles with some things, they made it work out in the end. An unexpected part was cotton balls, representing flowers, falling from the sky. Doing that trick was a strike of brilliance.
Overall, the play was catchy and beautiful. If you missed the opportunity to see this play, don’t worry there are always more in the future. The next one play is Charlie Brown’s Christmas. Make sure you go see it. It is going to be awesome!
Great job Tartan Theatre! All of you did great! We can’t wait to see what you guys have for us next.
This was honestly a great family and friendly musical. All the effort from the helpers in the theater, from the actors to the stage crew, they truly did an outstanding job!
Truly comprehensive review. I wish I would have been able to make it to a show, I heard it was spectacular. However, if anyone from Tartan Theatre is reading this, I feel that Green Eggs and Ham should be coming up next on the docket; it is truly the Magnum Opus of Mr. Geisel.
Such a good show! Went to go see it with a friend of mine, and couldn’t help but become totally immersed in the story. The cast was perfectly chosen! So glad I found the time to watch it. Incredibly hilarious, and yet very heartwarming. Great job, everyone!
Great job guys! The musicals you do are always amazing! The costumes are magical and you always bring the characters to life!
I wish I had been able to see the show, especially after reading your review of it. It seemed like a fun show and from what I’ve heard, they all did a fantastic job.
