Description adapted from The Hobby Center website.

"Oh, the thinks you can think" when Dr. Seuss' best-loved characters collide and cavort in an unforgettable musical caper! The Cat In The Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a spec of dust that contains the Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to military school for thinking too many "thinks." Horton faces a double challenge: not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping, and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him.

Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family, and community are challenged and emerge triumphant. 

A Woman’s Memory, Her Greatest Betrayal. This modern psychological thriller, adapted from the best-selling novel and hit film, follows Rachel, a woman struggling with dependency. She must piece together her fragmented memories to find a girl who’s gone missing. As her night comes back to her, she considers: who can you trust when you can’t trust yourself?

When Lana Mae inherits her grandmother’s laundromat, she teams up with her friend Katie to turn it into the town’s hottest honky-tonk.

Fueled by classic country hits, Honky Tonk Laundry is a feel-good musical filled with friendship, heartache, and laughter — a boot-scootin’ good time for country music fans everywhere.
