Now,
The Grinch returns to the heart of Broadway in the St. James Theatre, 246 West 44th Street. Performances are scheduled to begin November 1st, 2007 and shows will run through January 6th, 2008. Ticket prices range from $25.00 - $111.50 with Premium seating also available. Group tickets on sale now (Group Sales Box Office, 800.223.7565,

Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical features the hit songs "You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch" and "Welcome Christmas" from the original animated series. "Max the Dog narrates this classic holiday tale as the mean and scheming Grinch, whose heart is "two sizes too small", decides to steal Christmas away from the Whos, an endlessly cheerful bunch bursting with holiday spirit. The Grinch is a natural at thieving, even lying to little Cindy-Lou Who about his intentions as he stuffs the family tree, up the chimney, as well as the 'roast beast' feast and every last present up the chimney. When the Whos still insist on celebrating Christmas as if the thievery had never occurred, they melt the old miser's heart and, in the end, the Grinch learns that the holidays are not about accumulating presents but about love and togetherness," state press notes.
