Back by popular demand, Dr. Seuss’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas is at Children’s Theatre Company now through January 5!

The image shows a colorful stage performance with characters dressed as whimsical, festive creatures. A green character in a Santa outfit is at the center, surrounded by a joyful group in bright costumes, under a "City Hall" sign.

Since seeing this show last year, coming back to Dr. Seuss’s How The Grinch Stole Christmas! was very high on my son’s 2024 holiday bucket list! We absolutely loved the show last year and this year was no exception!

A person dressed as the Grinch, wearing a Santa outfit, poses enthusiastically with one foot on a blue stool. The background features a whimsical, icy cave setting with vibrant colors and a large, purple mirror.

We all know the Grinch from Dr. Seuss’s book, the Jim Carrey movies and more. But wow- this musical version was such a treat! The songs were upbeat, creative and left me wanting more after each number was complete. Also the Grinch was hilarious! This is Reed Sigmund’s 7th time playing the Grinch with CTC and his creative energy was unmatched. My son and I were both sad when the cast took their final bows.

A man dressed in winter attire with a fur hat, round glasses, and gloves sings passionately on stage. The background features large, blue, abstract shapes resembling snow or ice.

This year was a bit different because Dean Holt (veteran CTC actor who also plays Old Max) directed the production for the first time. It’s easy to see how much his loves this show, especially since he’s been acting in it for 30 years!

Dr. Seuss’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas is recommended for all ages, but do note its 120 minutes with an intermission. The show isn’t scary but there are moments with special effects– flashing lights, loud music, fog. If your child has sensory sensitivity, you may want to check out the sensory performance options on Friday, December 13th and Friday, January 3rd, both at 7pm.

Children’s Theatre Company also creates amazing Audience Guides for each of their shows. Within it you can find the story outline, behind the scenes information, activities, engaging questions and so much more. As a parent, I love that CTC provides amazing resources like the Audience Guide!

Don’t miss your chance to see this Twin Cities treasure! Dr. Seuss’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas is currently playing at Children’s Theatre Company now through January 7. Ticket prices start at $15. I wouldn’t wait to get your tickets- the audience was packed when we went, and I heard that performances will sell out! Trust me- you won’t be disappointed by this show!
