A strong earthy, deep-rooted loving red to represent the parents, and a fresh, soft new-born green to represent the young children (the subtle sage green of Kamloops hills). The red leaves of the logo are the parents: a couple, a mother (pregnant as shown by the 'bump' on the leaf) and a single parent. The children are between them and together the entire Kamloops “family' is centred/grounded by one focal point—family living and unity. As a team they present an exuberant yet simple flower... which speaks to a harmonious life and what true beauty really is all about—our relationships with eachother. The logo also evokes a sense of movement... the action and activity of a family in motion, “doing' things together.

At the Sagebrush Theatre

You too could hear a Who! Mix together all of Dr. Seuss’ most-beloved characters (Horton, The Cat In The Hat, the Whos, the Grinch), a toe-tapping score and the good Doctor’s sense of fun, and you have a show that makes you want to sing along, even cheer out loud. Based on no less than 14 Dr. Seuss stories, Seussical™ is a wonderful trip down memory lane for grown-ups and a visit with friends for the kids. This is a journey of the imagination you will not soon forget.

“From the very first bars of the prologue I was absolutely hooked on this show. Not only does it encapsulate some of Dr. Seuss’ best characters, it also does what Seuss does best – wraps indelible life truths in colour and a sense of wonder. It’s a show that gives me hope because, as our hero JoJo says, ‘Anything’s possible’.” (Samantha MacDonald – WCT’s Associate Producer)

Music by Stephen Flaherty
Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
Book by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty
Co-conceived by Lynn Ahrens, Stephen Flaherty and Eric Idle
