Inspire climate action in this adaptation of Dr. Seuss' 1971 children's book. Featuring the voices of Danny DeVito, Taylor Swift, Ed Helms and Zac Effron, The Lorax tells the story of 12-year-old Ted who lives in Thneedville, where the trees are fake and residents purchase oxygen by the bottle. Ted leaves town to find out what happened to the Truffula trees in a once thriving forest. He encounters the Lorax, a cantankerous, yet endearing, creature intent on preserving the forest. This fun-filled musical adaptation values the well-being of our environment.
Theodore Seuss Geisel authored and illustrated more than 50 children's books that have been translated into more than 20 languages and won a Pulitzer Prize, three Academy Awards, two Emmys and two Peabody Awards for his literary creations. During his time as an undergraduate at Dartmouth College, he adopted the name Dr. Seuss.
