# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Sensory Friendly – Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 06 Dec, 2025 at 10:00 am
- **Event Description**: A sensory friendly performance is specially designed to create a more comfortable and inclusive theatrical experience for individuals on the autism spectrum or other sensitivities.

Slight modifications are made by the GRINCH team to the production itself, including:

Fewer loud noises and flashing lights that may be challenging for some audience members
More consistent levels of audio so no sounds are too jarring
Removing some costume pieces which may disguise or alter the appearance of a character
House lights kept at half throughout the show
While these modifications will be made, the performance is still open to and can be enjoyed by all audiences. 


THE GRINCH broke box office records for two consecutive years on Broadway during its holiday engagements at the St. James and Hilton theatres in New York. Since then, more than 2.1 million theatre-goers across America have been delighted by this heart-warming holiday musical, which The New York Times praised as “100 times better than any bedtime story” and the Gannett papers hailed as “A genius of a show! A total delight for both kids and adults.”

Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical features the hit songs “You’re A Mean One Mr. Grinch” and “Welcome Christmas” (written by Albert Hague and Dr. Seuss) from the original animated series. 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 (John Lee Beatty) and costumes (Robert Morgan) inspired by Dr. Seuss’ original illustrations help transport audiences to the whimsical world of Whoville, while the Music and Book of Mel Marvin and Timothy Mason breathe new life into this timeless story of the true meaning of Christmas. The 2025 production is directed by Matt August and co-directed and choreographed by Bob Richard, based on the original choreography by John DeLuca and originally created by 4-time Tony Award® winning director, Jack O’Brien.
