How the Grinch Stole Christmas
(2003) by The Old Globe  The Cat in the
Hat,Might be packing ‘em in, But Seuss’s Grinch is a cinch, That your heart it will win. How the Grinch Stole Christmas is back, Now for its sixth straight year running, With the Grinch again trying so hard to steal, All of our Christmases from coming! A brand new Grinch is lurking up in the snow, And putting on an unbelievably funny show. It’s our own David Brannen, A comic genius in his greenish hairdo, Making the Grinchiest Grinch ever. You must believe me – it’s true! Narrating this beloved holiday tale, Is the Grinch’s old dog Max, Turning his memories into the present, As he gives us just the facts. These facts come to life, Within John Lee Beatty’s incredible sets That look just like the book, But in 3-D and a bit bigger, I guess. From the top of Mt. Crumpet, To the singing Who puppets! The Whos are all decked, In Robert Morgan’s creative outfits, Adding much to the view, Of all the lively festive glitz. Within those fun clothes, Are some of our best local actors, Causing peals of giddy laughter, Rising right through the Globe’s rafters. They might make us laugh, But they put the Grinch in a stew, That is, all except one, Namely little Cindy Lou, Who was no more than two. It’s six-year-old Shawn Sullivan, As the absolutely adorable Cindy Lou, Bringing such enthusiasm and charm, To warm any man, woman, or Grinch down to his shoe. So take a pause from your shopping, And come out to the show, Bring your whole Who family, And leave with a rich holiday glow.
