On March 26th and 27th, the enchanting world of Dr. Seuss came alive on the UISG stage as students from grades 1 to 6 delivered a spectacular performance of Seussical Junior. The production marked the culmination of an extraordinary creative journey that began last September—one that showcased not just stellar performances, but the remarkable teamwork and dedication of four essential production teams working towards a common goal.

PART 1
A Journey of Creativity and Collaboration
创意与协作之旅

Since September, our Seussical cast and crew have participated in weekly afterschool extracurricular activities, each focused on a different aspect of theatrical production.

Start with Afterschool ECA Activities

What began as individual passion projects evolved into a coordinated effort that brought Dr. Seuss’s whimsical world to vibrant life. When the magical worlds of The Jungle of Nool and Whoville collided on stage, audiences—including UISG students, teachers, parents, and members of our local community—were captivated by the colorful and energetic scenes unfolding before them.

The Four Teams Behind the Magic
幕后魔法，四大团队

Performance Team: The heart of any theatrical production lies in its performers. Our young actors, from the caring and imaginative Horton to the determined Gertrude McFuzz, brought Stephen Flaherty’s music and Lynn Ahrens’ lyrics to life with infectious energy and genuine emotion. Through weekly rehearsals and coaching, these students mastered not only their lines and songs but also the art of connecting with their audience.

Set and Prop Design Team: Behind every memorable scene stands the meticulous work of our design team. These students brainstormed, sketched, and constructed the physical elements that transformed our stage into the vibrant worlds of Horton Hears a Who. From the towering trees of the Jungle of Nool to the intricate details of Whoville, this team’s creativity provided the visual foundation for every scene.

Costumes, Hair, and Makeup Team: Bringing characters to life required more than just performance—it required visual transformation. Our costume and makeup artists designed and created costumes, styled hair, and applied makeup that transported audiences into Dr. Seuss’s fantastical universe. Each character, from the smallest Who to the majestic Horton, was a testament to their artistic vision and technical skill.

Photography, Video Editing, Sound, and Lighting Team: The technical backbone of the production, this team ensured every moment was captured, amplified, and illuminated. From lighting that set the mood for each scene to sound design that brought music and dialogue to life, and the photography and video editing that will preserve these memories forever, their work was invisible yet absolutely essential.

Skills That Extend Beyond the Stage
超越舞台的收获

Working on Seussical Junior provided our students with invaluable learning experiences rooted in the IB Learner Profile and ATL (Approaches to Learning) skills. Students developed as communicators through collaboration, thinkers through creative problem-solving, and risk-takers by stepping outside their comfort zones. They honed their self-management skills by meeting deadlines and social skills by working as part of a team toward a common goal.

Seussical Junior

This production exemplified the power of friendship, loyalty, family, and community—themes at the heart of Horton Hears a Who. As Horton’s determination to protect the Whos teaches us, one person (or in this case, one student) truly can make a difference. Together, our four teams proved that when students collaborate with passion and purpose, the results are nothing short of magical.

Congratulations and thank you to all students, teachers, logistics staff and families who made Seussical Junior an unforgettable experience for all!

创意与协作之旅
A Journey of Creativity and Collaboration

自九月起，参与《苏斯狂想曲》的演员与剧组成员便投入到每周一次的课后拓展活动中，各自专注于舞台制作的不同环节。

自每周一次的ECA活动开始

起初作为个人兴趣项目的点滴努力，逐渐汇聚成一股强大的合力，最终将苏斯博士笔下天马行空的世界生动地呈现在观众面前。当努尔丛林和呼呼镇的奇幻世界在舞台上相遇时，包括UISG师生、家长以及社区成员在内的所有观众，无不被眼前色彩斑斓、充满活力的场景所深深吸引。

The Four Teams Behind the Magic

表演组：舞台的核心在于表演者。从充满爱心与想象力的霍顿，到意志坚定的格特鲁德·麦克福兹，我们的小演员们以充沛的活力与真挚的情感，生动演绎了斯蒂芬·弗莱厄蒂的音乐和琳恩·阿伦斯的歌词。通过每周的排练与指导，学生们不仅掌握了台词与歌曲，更学会了如何与观众建立情感的联结。

道具与布景设计组：每一个令人难忘的场景背后，都离不开设计组的精心付出。学生们集思广益，绘制草图，亲手制作道具与布景，将舞台幻化为《霍顿奇遇记》中的生动世界。从努尔丛林高耸的树木到呼呼镇精巧的细节，正是该组的创意为每一幕戏奠定了视觉基础。

服装、发型与化妆组：赋予角色生命，不仅依靠表演，还需要视觉上的蜕变。服装与化妆组的“小艺术家们”设计制作戏服、打造发型、描绘妆容，将观众带入苏斯博士的奇妙宇宙。从最小的呼呼镇居民到威严的霍顿，每一个角色都是他们艺术视野与精湛技艺的见证。

摄影、视频剪辑、音效与灯光组：作为制作的技术支柱，该组确保每一个瞬间都被完美捕捉、传递与照亮。从烘托场景氛围的灯光，到让音乐与对白生动呈现的音效设计，再到记录并剪辑影像以珍藏这份回忆的摄影与视频工作，他们的付出虽无形，却至关重要。

超越舞台的收获
Skills That Extend Beyond the Stage

参与《苏斯狂想曲》的排演，为学生们带来了宝贵的学习体验，这与IB学习者培养目标及学习方法（ATL）技能紧密相连。学生们在协作中锻炼了沟通能力，在创造性解决问题中提升了思考能力，在挑战自我中成为了勇于尝试的人。他们还通过按时完成任务磨练了自我管理技能，并在团队协作中精进了社交技能。

《苏斯狂想曲》

这场演出是友谊、忠诚、家庭与社区力量的生动体现——这也正是《霍顿奇遇记》的核心主题。正如霍顿那句“众生皆众生”所传达的精神，一个人的力量（在此，是一位学生的力量）真的可以带来改变。我们的四个团队共同证明了，当学生们带着热情与目标携手合作时，成果必将精彩非凡。

衷心感谢所有为《苏斯狂想曲》付出努力的学生、老师、后勤人员以及家长朋友们，是你们让这次体验成为所有人难以忘怀的美好回忆！
