Believe the hype!

Now about halfway through rehearsals, we asked the cast of Seussical Jr. how the show is going to be. Here are a few of their answers:

• “On a scale of 1 to 10, it’s an 11!”
•  “Amazing!”
•  “You will be laughing most of the show!”
•  “It’s going to be off the hook, because this is the most dedicated group ever!”
•  “The show is so much fun you won’t want it to end!”
•  “The best ever!”
•  “So awesome!”
•  “You’ll be begging for more!”
•  “This show will be awesome! We’re working hard! It is going to be so amazing!”
•  “It’s going to be really spectacular!”
•  “It’s going to be so good you’ll gasp repeatedly!”
•  “It will be the best production this year!”
•  “The plot and music is way more detailed than the last play. It’s terrific!”
•  “It’s going to be really good. You’ll smile through the whole thing!”
•  “It’s going to be as a good as a Broadway show! The cast is amazing!”
•  “I love all the music in this show!”
•  “It’s the best play ever!”
•  “Amayzing!”

We told you that theater builds confidence! It’s a good thing that they have the talent to back this up.
