Last year, due to the pandemic, the Globe’s 23rd annual production of the "Grinch" was presented by KPBS Radio in San Diego as a free audio-only production.

We regret that, in the interest of safety, we are unable to offer all-ages performances for this year’s production of Dr. Seuss’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas! For 2021, all performances welcome children ages three and up. Children under the age of three (including babes in arms) will not be admitted into the theatre.

Regardless of age, each audience member must wear a mask. For more information on our COVID-19 policy. We look forward to resuming our all-ages performances in the future.
