Dr. Seuss's The Cat in the Hat
The National Theatre's adaptation of Dr. Seuss's The Cat in the Hat is a lively, engaging play with sound effects and the original music score* for performance by adults for young children. Not a word has been touched or added to Dr. Seuss' classic, ensuring that anyone who's read the story will find themselves transported into the world they've always imagined.
From the moment his tall, red-and-white-striped hat appears around the door, Sally and her brother know that The Cat in the Hat is the funniest, most mischievous cat that they have ever met. With the trickiest of tricks and the craziest of ideas, he is certainly loads of fun. He turns a rainy afternoon into an amazing adventure... but what will mum find when she gets home...?
Featuring a cast of eight and with virtually no set needed, The Cat in the Hat is a perfect option for tours or for theatres with education programs. A production handbook and guide video are included in the materials, making staging this show delightfully easy to bring to life.
