April 17, 2025 – The Saar campus came alive with music, colour, and creativity as St Christopher’s School proudly staged Seussical Jr. on the 15th and 16th of April—a joyful celebration of imagination, collaboration, and talent.
This production marked a significant milestone in the Performing Arts calendar as the first-ever musical dedicated solely to our Year 7 and 8 students. It provided a unique platform for our younger Senior School performers to take centre stage—and they rose to the occasion with flair.
From the first beat of the overture to the final bow, Seussical Jr. transported audiences into the wild and whimsical world of Dr. Seuss. With toe-tapping tunes and colourful characters, the story followed Horton the Elephant—loyal, kind, and steadfast in his belief that “a person’s a person, no matter how small.” Joined by a cast of memorable personalities including the mischievous Cat in the Hat, devoted Gertrude McFuzz, and larger-than-life Mayzie La Bird, the students delivered a performance brimming with humour, heart, and energy.
Behind the scenes, the student and staff production crew worked with precision and professionalism, managing set changes, lighting, sound, and props to perfection. Their efforts created a seamless stage experience and helped bring the magic of the story to life.
More than just a musical, Seussical Jr. was a moment of growth and discovery for our Year 7 and 8 students. It gave them the chance to shine, to collaborate, and to build confidence in a supportive and creative environment. The bonds formed during rehearsals and the pride taken in every performance reflect the true spirit of St Chris.
We extend our sincere thanks to Ardaas Holdings for their generous support of the Performing Arts at St Christopher’s. Their commitment helps create opportunities for our students to develop and showcase their talents on stage.
We congratulate the entire cast and crew for an unforgettable show—and look forward to many more moments like this in the spotlight.
