Exclusive Interview: Jessie Brault and Rachael Spangler of Tread The Boards ‘Seussical Jr.’
What is it like stepping back into the world (and works) of Dr. Seuss, after growing up reading them? It’s surely an interesting experience, as we’re able to explore books such as Horton Hears a Who, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and The Cat in the Hat through the lens of a young adult. Does the work still hold the same magic that it once did? If you ask the cast of Tread the Board Theatre’s production of Seussical the Musical, the magic never dulls! We spoke with two of the cast members, Jessie Brault and Rachael Spangler, about their time on the production and what audiences can expect!
In this exclusive Box Seat Babes interview, Jessie Brault and Rachael Spangler discuss their experience stepping into the world of Dr. Seuss. Brault discusses a point in their life when they weren’t a fan of the show and explores how their perception has changed since being cast as Horton! Both actors discuss what drew them to this production and what about Seussical the Musical stood out to them! Listen in as they discuss which songs are their favorite to perform and which themes from the show resonate the most with them!
