MENOMONIE — UW-Stout freshman Lois Cassell has a love-hate relationship with playing the villain in the university’s production of “Seussical.”
“She’s very sassy,” the 19-year-old said of the Sour Kangaroo, who gets Horton, the hero elephant of the show, on trial for trying to save the Whos. “She’s the bully, the villain. I feel kind of bad when I hurt Horton. Everything she is I am not.”
“Seussical” features the main characters from such stories as “Horton Hears a Who!” “Cat in the Hat,” “Yertle the Turtle” and “Miss Gertrude McFuzz.” The musical opens Thursday at UW-Stout’s Harvey Hall Theatre.
