The Lorax

Oct 6
A town without trees, now there’s a thought. Japanese city planners would do well to watch this  environmental tale of woe, where greed and construction has won out over nature. One of the townsfolk, young Ted, is on a mission to bring it back. The girl he adores, Audrey, dreams of seeing a real tree, but no-one knows where they went. Through some perky musical numbers and helpful old folk, Ted finds out the true story of the trees, and befriends the odd creature called The Lorax. A lively and colourful adaptation of a classic children’s book by Dr Seuss.
