About the Show
Dec. 1, 2022 to Jan. 8, 2023
Based on the book How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss, Book and lyrics by Timothy Mason, Music by Mel Marvin, Music Direction by Denise Prosek and Victor Zupanc, Choreography by Linda Talcott Lee, Directed by Peter C. Brosius.
A miserly and miserable, ever-so-cantankerous Grinch has observed the despicable Christmas joy of the Whos with disdain, from a distance, for decades. Enough! In this favorite holiday story, filled with music and Seussian rhymes, he conceives a dastardly plot to destroy the holiday they love. It’s the smallest of the Whos, tiny Cindy Lou, who extends a hand. Through the combination of kindness and community, we witness not only a change in the course of Who-History, but the size and capacity of the cantankerous Grinch’s heart.
At this Sensory Friendly performance, sensory modifications are balanced with preserving the engaging theatre experience desired by all children and families. Sensory Friendly programming was developed for patrons with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Sensory Processing Disorder, as well as individuals with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, anxiety, and other sensory, social, and cognitive disabilities and mental illnesses, thanks to a partnership with Fraser, ByPercentand the Autism Society of Minnesota.

RUN TIME: Two hours with one 15-minute intermission.
BEST ENJOYED by all ages.
