Celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday at Spivey Hall

Celebrate Dr. Seuss’s birthday and Read Across America month with bright costumes, zany characters, and well-loved stories performed at Spivey Hall.

The Capitol City Opera Company will present “Seuss-Some Two-Some” Wednesday, March 4 at 9:45 a.m. and again at 11:15 a.m.

Using the exact prose written by “Dr. Seuss,” Theodor Geisel, this is an excellent and easy-to-understand introduction into the world of opera. Extensive audience interaction and the use of five students on stage during the show keep everyone engaged and interested. Let Gertrude McFuzz and Sam-I-Am show students the importance of loving yourself just as you are and of keeping an open mind — even towards green food.

Spivey Hall’s Young People’s Concerts (YPC) are 45-50 minutes in length and designed for audience interaction. Educators and parents are asked to note carefully the performance times and recommended grade levels for each program. There will be study guides correlated to the curriculum (GPS and CCGPS) with a concentration on STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics).

While the concerts are intended for children and youth in pre-K to grade 12, Spivey Hall welcomes community members of all ages to the performances. Concerts cost just $2 in advance, $5 on the day of the concert, and are available for purchase now.
