Segerstrom Center Sets Activities for DR. SEUSS' HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS! THE MUSICAL, 12/10-14

By:

Audiences attending the Segerstrom Center performances of DR. SEUSS' HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS! THE MUSICAL from December 10 - 14 might find their hearts growing a few sizes when participating in all the fun and free lobby activities planned starting one hour prior to show time and during intermission.

Ticketholders for all 10 performances will have the opportunity to hear acclaimed storyteller Jim Cogan bring to life the classic story of How the Grinch Stole Christmas! along with other beloved Dr. Seuss tales, in an engaging storytelling experience. There will be two readings offered one hour before show time at the Balcony Level lobby of Segerstrom Hall.

Patrons will be "sleighed" to know that photo opportunities will be available and taking place at the Orchestra Terrace Level lobby. An adorned sleigh featuring "Max the Reindeer" will be on display and guests are encouraged to use #SCFTA and #GrinchMusical when sharing photos via social media.

DR. SEUSS' HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS! THE MUSICAL brings the magic of this cherished tale to life on stage, featuring the hit songs "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch" and "Welcome Christmas" (written by Albert Hague and Dr. Seuss), 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 lovable Whos. For more information about DR. SEUSS' HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS! THE MUSICAL, please visit www.GrinchMusical.com.
