Our staff will be unavailable from 11am on Friday 17th May until 9am on Tuesday 21st May, spreading the joy of jazz hands and spirit fingers at our Junior Theatre Festival in Birmingham. Our office will remain open, however, to accept deliveries of returned materials.

Audition Central: Original - Seussical JR.
Script: Mrs. Mayor
Jojo!
I'm the Mayor of Who. Why, I've just been elected.
And upright behavior is thus forth expected.
We've just had a talk with your teachers today
And they didn't have one single good thing to say!
You invented new Thinks which defy all description!
(Throughout this litany of JOJO's behavior, we need to know that THE CAT was responsible. THE CAT may be guilt-ridden or highly amused. JOJO, of course, sees THE CAT reacting, but his PARENTS don't.)
You gave Miss O'Dooley a nervous conniption!
Your Thinks were so wild they disrupted your classes
And made Mrs. Mackel-Who drop her new glasses.
Which is why you're suspended!
Yes, that's what they said!
Young man, what in Who has got into your head?!
I& um&
(JOJO looks to THE CAT for help, but THE CAT makes it clear he's on his own.)
Now Horton has found us. We're safe on a clover.
But clearly our troubles are far, far from over.
We don't mean to scold you. We love you, oh, yes, dear.
But couldn't you try thinking just a bit less, dear?
Stop telling such outlandish tales.
Stop turning minnows into whales.
Now take your bath and go to bed.
And think some Normal Thinks instead.
