CAT IN THE HAT Set for Orpheum's Family Series, 10/30

On Friday, October 30th at 6:30 PM, the Orpheum's Family Series returns for its 2015-2016 season beginning with a stage adaptation of the classic children's book, Cat In The Hat. Full of some of Dr. Seuss' most memorable characters, Cat In The Hat is whimsical fun for children and parents alike.

From the moment his tall, red-and-white-striped hat appears at their door, Sally and her brother know that the Cat in the Hat is the most mischievous cat they will ever meet. Suddenly the rainy afternoon is transformed by the Cat and his antics. Will their house ever be the same? Can the kids clean up before mom comes home? With some tricks (and a fish) and Thing Two and Thing One, with the Cat in The Hat, the fun's never done! Cat In The Hat is recommended for ages 4 and up.
