In rehearsal: Dr. Seuss’s The Lorax

First Published 27 September 2017, Last Updated 28 September 2017

The irrepressible, big-hearted, moustachioed critter is back – and bouncing into rehearsals at The Old Vic ready for its forthcoming three-week run.

This dazzlingly funny, moving and inspiring show sees the go-getting Once-ler come face to face with the magical Lorax in a battle over the beloved truffula trees and the whole of Paradise Valley.

Adapted for the stage by David Greig with music and lyrics by Charlie Fink (Noah and the Whale Frontman), Dr. Seuss’s The Lorax is a brilliant riot of eye-popping colour, gorgeous puppetry and infectious music to enchant adults and children alike.

The Olivier Award-nominated and critically acclaimed family show sees Simon Paisley Day reprise his starring role as The Once-ler from the show’s 2015 Olivier Award-nominated run.

Dr Seuss’s The Lorax previews from Sunday 15 October.
