I will not eat them on a train. Not in the dark! Not in a tree! Not in a car!

Dr. Suess + High School Musical = Suessical
Suessical ≥ Civil War: The Musical, the last live musical I saw (Broadway, 1999)

The Suessical is about the cutest thing I have ever seen. Beautiful young people singing and dancing so earnestly, illustrating Horton Hears a Who and showing kids to be true to themselves and to harness their imagination. Just so cute. The girl who played Amazing Mazie may have been Reese Witherspoon's doppelganger. And the closing number of "Green Eggs and Ham" was adorable. The whole thing was really well done.

Is it weird the only theater I've been to in about a decade has been with my Little Sis? When I lived in San Diego, we used to go to plays all the time. I had no idea no idea my cultural salad days would peak at age 22. I need to fix that.
