Community Theater Green Room Discussion Board: Dr. Seuss Plays

Message

   Has anyone ever seen straight plays of Dr. Seuss books.  My high school is wanting to produce a tour next fall and go around to area elementary schools.  Obviously we don't want anything to complex (so Seussical is out of the question) and I think doing something kids recognize is really important.

I once remember seeing "The Lorax" as a short play with an adaptation of "The Emperor's New Clothes" at the Coterie Theater in KC.  But I've never been able to find the rights to that or any other Dr. Seuss plays.

Thanks for the help!
