A Revival After 11 Years – Limited One-Month Run
The Grinch, the world-famous character from the hit 2000 film of the same name, has become as much a holiday classic in the U.S. as “Home Alone,” “Elf,” and “A Christmas Story.” On Broadway, it was previously staged as a limited run from November 1, 2007, to January 6, 2008. Now, after about 11 years, the show makes its Broadway return under the title “Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas”. With enhanced music and storytelling, this revival is presented as a special limited engagement from December 13 to December 30.
Grinch Played by Gavin Lee, Known for Squidward in SpongeBob
The mischievous Grinch, who despises both people and joy, is brought to life by Gavin Lee. He is best known for playing Squidward in the musical SpongeBob SquarePants, which earned 12 Tony Award nominations in 2018.
Lee’s career highlights also include his role as Bert in Mary Poppins (2004) and Thenardier in Les Miserables (2015). Renowned for his ability to embody quirky and larger-than-life characters, his performance as the Grinch is highly anticipated for its wit, charm, and humor.

A Character Loved Worldwide
The character became internationally famous thanks to the 2000 film starring Jim Carrey, but its origin goes back to 1957, when author Dr. Seuss published the children’s holiday picture book How the Grinch Stole Christmas!.
The story follows the Grinch, who despises both Christmas and the joyful people celebrating it. Determined to ruin the holiday, he schemes to steal Christmas away from everyone. Although he is grumpy and mischievous, his quirky look and antics have made him a beloved holiday icon around the world.
Holiday Spirit Through Christmas Songs
When it comes to Grinch songs, the best known is “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” popularized by the 2000 film and originally featured in the 1966 animated special. But the musical brings a whole collection of Christmas-themed songs to the stage. Many are playful, easy to follow, and carry a whimsical holiday feel, even for audiences new to the story.
Titles such as “I Hate Christmas Eve” and “Who Likes Christmas?” perfectly capture the Grinch’s love-to-hate attitude toward the season.
