Back by popular demand, Dr. Seuss’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas is at Children’s Theatre Company now through January 4th, 2026!
Since seeing this show for the last two years, coming back to Dr. Seuss’s How The Grinch Stole Christmas! was very high on my son’s 2025 holiday bucket list! We absolutely loved the show last year and this year was no exception!
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 8th time playing the Grinch with CTC and his creative energy is unmatched. My son and I were both sad when the cast took their final bows.
If you think you’d seen one Grinch, so you’ve seen them all– think again! My son and I have come to see this show the last three years and we both thought this year was the absolute funniest! The Grinch gets more hilarious every year and the added jokes about current pop culture kept both my son and I in stitches during the show. Every year the show changes and we find new things to enjoy!
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 12th at 7pm and Sunday, January 4th at 11am.
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 forget to arrive a little early to check out fun activities in the lobby. This year there’s a Who scavenger hunt in the lobby, a grinch “snowball” fight and you can make your own Grinch or Who ornament to decorate the lobby tree!
