(BURLINGTON, NJ) -- Bridge Players Theatre Company presents Seussical across three weekends from May 1-16, 2026. Seussical is a fantastical, magical, musical extravaganza while weaving a story of friendship, loyalty, and love.

Despite all odds, Horton and Gertrude band together to save the Whos, free Horton, and restore peace and unity to the Jungle of Nool! The charming story of Seussical teaches us the power of friendship, loyalty, family and community, being unique, and the importance of fighting for your beliefs. 

Tony winners, Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (Lucky Stiff, My Favorite Year, Once on This Island, Ragtime), have lovingly brought to life all of our favorite Dr. Seuss characters.

Performances take place Friday and Saturday nights at 8:00pm; Sunday matinees at 3:00pm.  There will be a special 3:00pm matinee on May 9th. Tickets are available for purchase online. The theater is located at 36 E Broad Street in Burlington, New Jersey.

Seussical features Music by Stephen Flaherty; Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens; Book by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty. It was co-conceived by Lynn Ahrens, Stephen Flaherty, and Eric Idle based on the works of Dr. Seuss.
