About

DR SEUSS’ HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS! THE MUSICAL is the record-setting Broadway sensation which features the hit songs “You’re A Mean One Mr. Grinch” and “Welcome Christmas” from the original animated television special. 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. Magnificent sets and costumes inspired by Dr. Seuss’ original illustrations help transport audiences to the whimsical world of Whoville, as this sparkling production breathes new life into this timeless story of the true meaning of Christmas. Don’t miss what The New York Times calls “AN EXTRAORDINARY PERFORMANCE! 100 times better than any bedtime story.”

    How the Grinch Stole Christmas

    by Blop on 12/13/23DPAC - Durham Performing Arts Center - Durham

    It was good however the first 30 mins or so was a tad slow and boring but it finished much better than it started.

    Wow!

    by Jeff on 12/13/23DPAC - Durham Performing Arts Center - Durham

    I’m going to keep this simple but I have to say I was surprised that the well-known story was able to be told in a creative and inventive way. Thoroughly enjoyed the musical.

    Lovely performance

    by Kitkat on 12/13/23DPAC - Durham Performing Arts Center - Durham

    Overall it was a really great experience. Very entertaining and fun experience. At times there was a little trouble hearing what was being said but otherwise a wonderfully done play/musical.

    A Must See! Will Pay to See Again!

    by Reese on 12/12/23DPAC - Durham Performing Arts Center - Durham

    The helpful and friendly staff/ greeters were present at each entrance to ensure they can help any guest that needed help. The lobby, bathrooms and theater were all very clean, visually and scent-wise. Will Call staff was also professional and friendly assisting me with retrieving my tickets. The ushers are approachable and welcoming. Everyone must be trained very well because I haven't been disappointed with customer service any of the times I attend a show at DPAC. The show itself was well organized, stage lighting was great, A/V was clear and reasonably loud enough. The cast was funny, they performed & sang with energy. The customs/wardrobe was colorful, vibrant and on point!! The special effects, combines with everything above, made it all worth while. Definitely a show If pay to see again!

    Great

    by Linda on 12/12/23Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    My 92 year old mother joined her children and grandchildren for a wonderful, whimsical experience! The staff was VERY attentive to my mother's needs as she is physically impaired, and I want to express my sincere gratitude to them for their kindness, and attentiveness. The grandchildren had a great time. It was the first live performance for my youngest (just turned 5) and he could not take his eyes off the stage. Thank you from 4 generations (all attending) for a memorable afternoon.

    Great show!

    by Lori D on 12/12/23DPAC - Durham Performing Arts Center - Durham

    The cast was wonderful. The singing and storyline was good. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars is it doesn’t really follow the movie and I personally prefer when it follows a movie. Therewere some similar parts!

    The Grinch

    by Happy on 12/12/23Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    The Pantages is always a wonderful venue, and have had great experiences. The Grinch was a fun and engaging play. Everyone enjoyed the event. My only comment was that the sound system seemed off the evening we attended. Hares to hear, sound cut out several times when actors were speaking.

    Cast was great. The original music just wasn't great.

    by Hound on 12/12/23Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    The whole cast performed amazingly. I just wasn't a fan of the new original music. They know everyone is waiting around for "You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch"and even that performance is just ok. The Grinch/Max/The Who's are all great as are everyone working behind the scenes. The writing was my only complaint.

    It was not the greatest experience

    by Cast on 12/12/23Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    First of all, the grinch look scary for the kids! It didn’t look like the advertisement they were showing! I did notice it was the same backdrops being used multiple times. I been to several musicals at the Pantages Theater. I wouldn’t recommend it. The shirts they say from the musical shrink after one time being wash. Save yourself the $55 a shirt. Stay away from the merchandise.

    Grinch Stole the Show

    by CA Supai on 12/12/23Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    This show was so delightful. It definitely brought the kid in me. I had my entire family with me and my grandkids (7-18). They all loved it. Having the older Max be the voice of the story was unique and the young max was perfect for the part. The voice of Cindyloo Hoo was fantastic as was her performance. The entire cast did an excellent job to take us back to Hooville. The sets were colorful and perfect for the scenes. Also, having the audience take part in the show is something I loved. Anytime the audience is engaged in the performance, you have a hit! But the biggest delight of all was the performance of the Grinch. His mannerism, features, costume and voice definately were very grinchy. I would recommend this play to everyone of every age!

    Underwhelming Holiday Show

    by ScorpQun on 12/12/23DPAC - Durham Performing Arts Center - Durham

    This particular show, "How the Grinch Stole Christmas, the Musical", was very underwhelming. Seems this was not a story suited for a "musical". My eleven year old fell asleep a couple times during the 3pm show performance. Additionally, the souvenir options were very disappointing and severely over-priced. Was hoping this show could become a yearly tradition to go watch, but it definitely is Not.

    Wonderful Holiday Experience

    by Theresa on 12/11/23Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    The classic Dr. Seuss tale really translated well to stage. The plot was in no way compromised. The songs, some from the cartoon and some additional added to the story telling. The actors were talented, their singing and movement was spot on. The enthusiasm of the audience, especially during the audience participation portion added to the fun. The sets and costumes were cute. This was a great way to start off the holiday season!

    Missing some of the best parts

    by mg on 12/11/23DPAC - Durham Performing Arts Center - Durham

    I’m not a professional reviewer by any means but the plot just didn’t feel right. Don’t care for the songs that didn’t come from the movie. Cindy loo who could’ve been highlighted more than she was. It’s funny and the actors were great, just didn't love all of the music and the lack of details.
