This engaging story weaves together many favorite Dr. Seuss characters, creatures, places and things. The classic, colorful tales are seamlessly brought together by Jojo, a child and "thinker of strange and wonderful thinks." As the story unfolds you will marvel at how relevant and profound Dr. Seuss's subtle themes really are; making this a show that will certainly appeal to all ages. While children undoubtedly will thrill to see familiar Dr. Seuss characters, adults will also enjoy a surprisingly sophisticated Broadway musical. The score emerges as a beguiling, Seussian gumbo of musical styles, ranging from Latin to pop, swing to gospel, and R&B to funk! |

I-290/ROUTE 53
Road Construction
IDOT has begun resurfacing 7 miles of the highway between Higgins and Rand roads. Northbound and southbound drivers are hit with permanent daytime lane closures between now and Aug. 27.
Next, northbound drivers will feel the joy of reduced lanes from Aug. 27 through Oct. 29. IDOT also is resurfacing I-355 from Army Trail Road to I-290.
This project will be stretched over two years. For more information on the road work, call (847) 705-4696 or visit dot.il.gov/I290/overview. |
