DR. SEUSS’ HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS

NOVEMBER 21 – DECEMBER 24, 2026

Book and Lyrics by Timothy Mason
Music by Mel Marvin
Additional Music and Lyrics by Albert Hague and Dr. Seuss
Based on the book How The Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss

Discover the magic of Dr. Seuss’ classic holiday tale as it comes to life on stage. Featuring the hit songs “You’re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch” and “Welcome Christmas,” The Grinch discovers there’s more to Christmas than he bargained for in this heart-warming holiday classic. Max the Dog narrates as the mean and scheming Grinch, whose heart is “two sizes too small,” decides to steal Christmas away from the holiday-loving Whos. Celebrate the holidays with the show The New York Times calls “100 times better than any bedtime story!”
