Spring 2025
Seussical
Thank you for joining EPIC Players for our whimsical and heart-filled production of Seussical! Led by Horton the Elephant’s steadfast belief in the tiny Whos, and joined by favorites like Gertrude McFuzz, Mayzie LaBird, and the mischievous Cat in the Hat, our neurodiverse cast brought Dr. Seuss’s world to vibrant life. With toe-tapping songs, colorful costumes, and a powerful message about inclusion, imagination, and standing up for others, Seussical was a joyful celebration of everything EPIC stands for.
We’re incredibly grateful to our performers, families, teaching artists, volunteers, venue partners, and supporters whose energy and generosity helped make this production truly unforgettable.
