Can anyone give me information on Seussical junior? I know it is avaliable, but I cannot find information on how it differs to the full show. What songs are included? How different it is vocally? etc.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Posted: 6/11/07 at 6:15pmThere used to be a song list on the MTI website I'm pretty sure I've seen one before and I'm 99% sure it was on the MTI website. I don't know why they would have taken it down.

The Keys are Lowered for Horton, and The Sour Kangaroo. Not much is really cut but rather slimmed down. The main cut is the character of General Genghis Kahn Schmitz, and the cutting of the songs (A Day For the Cat in the Hat, The Military, The Circus McGurkus, and Havin' A Hunch) A reference recording is given which is sung a bunch of talented young singers, and a backing CD. It's altogether a good representation of the show, and the integrity of the piece is still intact.
PM me if you have any specific questions.
