First Grade Students at Mapleton Elementary were treated to two special events for the birthday of Dr. Seuss!  On Thursday they went to the Scera Theater to watch a special live performance of "The Cat in the Hat" .  Students were entertained with beach balls bouncing through the audience, singing and dancing in a special preshow then of course the play.  It was very well done with amazing costumes and back drops not to mention a very talented cast!  After the performance students had the opportunity to meet the performers and ask questions about the theater.  They learned how props were made, how the back drops were brought in and out and what the performers did for their full time jobs.  Most of the performers work on plays as free performers.  Some are employed by the Scera while others are moms and students to perform for fun.   Students enjoyed the performance and are to be commended for their excellent behavior.
