Seussical the Musical

I feel this review should be written in rhyming couplets but as I am not Dr Seuss I won’t inflict that on you. GAMA Youth are keeping up with their usual high standards with this colourful and energetic show. Olivia M and Martha lead from the front as the boy/JoJo and the Cat in the Hat, confident and secure in their roles. Inis, playing Horton, really connected with the audience and made us believe ‘a person’s a person no matter how small’. There are too many people that played other parts to mention individually but the depth of talent on display bodes well for the future of this company. The whole cast were obviously well rehearsed in both the music and direction. Credit goes to Alan Gibson, musical director and Mahri Smith, director and choreographer for all their hard work. The set worked well with the small set changes being handled efficiently by the back stage crew, helping to keep the show’s momentum going. The show never dipped in energy levels and all the cast appeared to be enjoying themselves which is as it should be. 

                                            'Then the curtain came down

                                             And he said  "That is that"

                                             And then he was gone

                                             With a tip of his hat.'

Well done GAMA (Youth).
