Horton Hatches The Egg - Seussical

Seussical

The broadway musical Seussical centers largely around Horton the Elephant, as his attempt to protect the Whos on their dust speck is de-railed by many factors, including the animal obstacles presented in Horton Hears a Who! and, Mayzie la Bird's irresponsible parenting of her egg, which she eventually entrusts to Horton. They encounter each other at the circus in the second act, in which Mayzie gives Horton full custody of her egg. In the finale of the musical, Horton's egg hatches into an elephant bird.
