  • 1.  Seussical - Gertrude's tail

    Posted 02-17-2022 08:01
    Hello! I am directing Seussical to open March 4 and would like to rent or buy Gertrude's growing tail. I am running out of time and thought if I could take this off my list, that would be great. I live in north-central Indiana, about 60 miles straight north of Indianapolis. Can anyone help me out?

    Thanks,
    Ann

    Hi Ann,
    Bummer that I am just seeing this. We made our growing tail and it was awesome, and very long..haha..
    Hopefully you found something worked.

    Hi!

    We did Seussical last Fall.  We used a feathered boa as Gertrude's tail, and were able to pin extensions to the tail to make it appear to grow and it worked GREAT!  
    That might be a quick fix for you.

    Thank you for the suggestion. I ended up building four tails of various lengths that we kept adding to Gertrude's costume.

    Thanks!
