Seussical:Book, Music, and Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens & Stephen FlahertyDirected by Tommy IafrateMusic Directed by Melissa YanchakChoreographer: JoEllen KuhlmanNovember 14-22, 2025
Now one of the most performed shows in America, Seussical is a fantastical, magical, musical extravaganza that brings to life all of our favorite Dr. Seuss characters, including Horton the Elephant, The Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, lazy Mayzie and a little boy with a big imagination – Jojo. The colorful characters transport us from the Jungle of Nool to the Circus McGurkus to the invisible world of the Whos.
The Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck 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.

See you there!
Jonathan Larson’s groundbreaking Tony and Pulitzer Prize -winning musical RENT returns in a powerful new symphonic concert version.
With a live cast, full band, and symphonic arrangements, RENT in Concert reimagines the beloved rock musical in a bold and moving format. This production brings Larson’s raw, emotional score to life with a new sonic depth while staying true to its story of community, love, loss, and resilience in the face of the HIV/AIDS crisis.
Fans of the original will find this concert both familiar and fresh; an homage to a show that defined a generation and continues to speak powerfully today.
Bagpipes with attitude. Drums with a Scottish accent.
It’s The Red Hot Chilli Pipers (that’s Pipers, NOT Peppers!), the nine piece ensemble of pipers, guitarists, keys and drummers who rock the world with musicianship of the highest order and a passion for pipes that leaves audiences and band alike breathless.
Since they walked away with the top prize on the U.K. primetime talent show, “When Will I Be Famous” in 2007, the Red Hot Chilli Pipers haven't stopped for a breath, other than to inflate their bagpipes! Formed in 2002, The Chillis have become a global phenomenon, taking their signature 'bagrock' sound to the masses with their unique fusion of rocked up bagpipes and clever covers of popular songs from all genres. Their trademark sound is a unique fusion of traditional pipe tunes like “The Flowers of Scotland” and contemporary anthems like Queen’s “We Will Rock You.” The band has four music degrees from the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama and all the pipers and drummers have played at the top level in bagpiping.
The Pipers have sold out the Anderson Center twice before and we can’t wait to welcome them back to celebrate St. Patrick’s Weekend in 2026!
This performance will feature a special onstage collaboration between the Red Hot Chilli Pipers and local bagpipe groups.
We are excited to announce that the Indigo Girls will be giving a joint performance in the Anderson Center with the Binghamton University Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Jingqi Zhu.
