The story centers around Horton the Elephant, who finds himself faced with a double challenge--not only must he protect his tiny friend Jojo and all the Whos, but he must also guard an abandoned egg, left to his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird.  This show has an exciting score full of colorful music that fits a Dr. Seuss story perfectly!
Public Ticket Sales begin March 20, 2010 Performances are at  Comstock Community Auditorium	Kalamazoo Friday, April 30 at 7:00pm Saturday, May 1 at 1:00pm and 7:00pm Friday, May 7 at 7:00pm Saturday, May 8 at 1:00pm and 7:00pm Titanic is based on the true story of the great ship's maiden voyage.  This show captures the exhilaration surrounding this technological wonder and the hopes and dreams of the many people who were on board.  It is both serious and entertaining as it chronicles the actions of the ship's crew, as well as a wide array of passengers, touching on issues such as class, immigration, and mankind's vulnerability in the face of nature.  The aspirations of these individuals are brought to light, and their character revealed as they deal with their inevitable fate once the boat strikes an iceberg.  Titanic, the Musical, won five Tony Awards including Best Musical, Best Book, and Best Score.  This show does not resemble the popular 1997 movie of the same name.
