Review: DR. SEUSS' HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS at Des Moines Performing Arts
by DC Felton - Dec 20, 2025
One of my favorite parts of the Holiday season is seeing classic stories brought to the stage. For many people, their first experience in theatre is a production of “The Nutcracker” or “A Christmas Carol.” This season, we get the opportunity to add a third story to that growing list. On Tuesday, December 16, the national tour of “Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical” started a week-long run at Des Moines Performing Arts. While this show may be new to Des Moines audiences, the story is a classic that is sure to make your heart grow three sizes.

Just saw Big River: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn at Virginia Samford Theatre! The cast's energy, comedic timing, and outstanding vocals truly shine. Huckleberry & Jim's chemistry and Pap Finn's hilarious performance were highlights! Highly recommend for an entertaining night out! #BigRiver #VirginiaSamfordTheatre #HuckleberryFinn
