How the Grinch Stole Christmas at the Children’s Theatre Company
December 1st to January 4th
Cost: $35-119/person (all ages)
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.
Children’s Theatre Company - 2400 3rd Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN 55404
