21 roles

JojoMale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A "Thinker." He's a smart child with a wild imagination. JoJo can be played as being a little bit awkward, a little bit of a loner, or simply a rambunctious kid whose "Thinks" get him into constant trouble. By the end of the show, he learns what it means to be a responsible member of his community, using the power and possibilities of his own "Thinks."

The Cat in the HatMale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The essence of mischief, fun, and imagination. The Cat stirs things up and causes trouble but always sets things right again. He helps JoJo discover the power of his own imagination as they create the story of Seussical JR. together. Look for ra physically adept actor (male or female) to play the Cat who is confident onstage, comfortable with comedy, and able to improvise with the audience if needed.

Horton the ElephantMale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A gentle giant. Think of Horton as a big-hearted, blue-collar guy who is steadfast, responsible, and always tries to do the right thing. He is sympathetic and receptive to the world around him. He believes in the inherent goodness of the world, so it's no surprise that he always looks for the good in others. Horton goes on quite a journey throughout the show but stays true to himself, even when the going gets tough.

Mr. MayorMale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Mr. Mayor and Mrs. Mayor are parents trying hard to raise a child with a big imagination. These Whos may get aggravated with JoJo, but they love him dearly. They try their best to make the right choices as parents, even if JoJo doesn't always understand them. They are also upstanding members of their community.

Mrs. MayorFemale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

They try their best to make the right choices as parents, even if JoJo doesn't always understand them. They are also upstanding members of their community.

Gertrude McFuzzFemale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Very self-conscious about her one-feather tail. Gertrude gains confidence throughout the show, changing from an anxious, nervous, shy bird into someone whose self-worth doesn't rest on her appearance. In other words, Gertrude realizes what's truly important in her life.

Mayzie La BirdFemale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Self-centered, vain, and manipulative. She ultimately means no harm, but she's immature and makes selfish decisions. In giving up her egg to Horton once and for all, she has a moment of self- awareness - she realizes she isn't the kind of bird who would be a good parent, and she does the best thing she can for the egg.

Wickersham BrothersMale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The Wickersham Brothers, including Wickersham 1, Wickersham 2, and Wickersham 3, are not bad guys! They tease, play pranks, and get a kick out of making mischief, although often at another's expense.

Bird GirlsFemale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The Bird Girls, including Bird Girl 1, Bird Girl 2, and Bird Girl 3, are a fabulous group of birds who know everything there is to know about the goings on in the jungle and support Mayzie throughout the show.

Sour KangarooFemale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Loud, brassy, and a lot of fun. She's got a lot of attitude but isn't mean - she's just very confident and unafraid to tell it like it is.

Young KangarooFemale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Sour Kangaroo's feisty daughter. She may be pint-sized, but she's got a big personality and is following in her mother's footsteps.

Judge Yertle the TurtleMale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The authoritative judge who presides over Horton's trial at the end of the show.

Vlad VladikoffMale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The black-bottomed eagle who flies off with the Whos.

The GrinchMale8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Arguably the most famous Seuss character of all! He has a brief, fun cameo in Seussical JR.

The WhosBoth genders8-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The Whos (including First Who Family, Second Who Family, Third Who Family, Fourth Who Family, and Fifth Who Family) are the citizens of Whoville and they look a lot like you and me, only so small they are invisible to the naked eye. They are a tight-knit, supportive community.
