Seussical with a Female JoJo
The question you're answering.

Ok...do to a lack of boys in my Junior High program I had to cast a female in the role of JoJo in Seussical Jr. Now, I have everything worked out and it works...except for one line in the People vs Horton that originally reads "Now just for a moment young Jojo looked grim, the fate of the whos rested squarely on him."Has anyone else been in this situation? What did you change the line to? Obviously the rhyme sceme is off if I just change him to her. I have all of the other gender references changed, but this one has me stumped. Any suggestions?

When i did Seussical JoJo was double cast. One was a boy and one was a girl and they alternated performances. I REALLY wish i could remember what we changed that line too. I think it was something with rhyming
"Now just for a moment young Jojo looked sad, the fate of the whos looked really quite bad"
I believe that was the line actually.
