Why not pay homage to the great Horton?  Seussical is now playing at Woodminster Summer Theater, and each paying adult can take two kids, 16 and under, free.  Performances start at 8pm, tonight through Sunday.

Now in their 42nd season, these Woodminster shows have become an authentic summer tradition.  The theater is located within Joaquin Miller Park (map), near the main entrance.

Paid tickets run $23-38 per adult, depending on where you sit. To ensure that your paid and free seats are together, I would hit the box office right before the performance.  Here’s more info about the bargain deal.

Seussical is perfect fare for all youngsters who love Dr. Seuss.  This musical brings Horton and other great Theodore Geisel characters to life.  Horton’s just a cool elephant who tries to do the right thing.

For a little inspiration before you go, you could pull out the tried-and-true books or watch some movie clips.  Also try this interactive Seussville game where you select scenes, cast characters and write their lines.

Kids of all ages can’t go wrong at Seussical, taking in the amphitheatre ambience too.  Remember to bundle up, since it gets “cold” at night in the hills – as you well know.
