Written by Matthew Lombardo, featuring Samantha Cormier as Cindy Lou Who. Directed by Kevin Johnson

This wildly irreverent solo show is a heartfelt holiday parody that looks at the life of a grown-up Cindy Lou Who. Starring Tucson favorite Samantha Cormier.

A middle-aged Cindy Lou Who, now residing in a beaten-down trailer in the snowy hills of Mount Crumpit, is about to host a Christmas Eve party for her friends. As she prepares, she recalls from her own perspective that fated night when she first met the Grinch, and the strange turn of events her life has taken for the past 40 years.

What the critics say:

"Spoken entirely in rhyming couplets, is a comic tour de force." —Carey Purcell, The Village Voice

"The funniest Christmas show in town!" —BroadwayBox"

"A raunchy riff on Dr Seuss's yuletide tale … The little tyke has become a bottle-blonde adult who spends her days in a trailer appointed with Airstream functionality and seasonal kitsch … brassy, very funny … a holiday offering that dirties up Christmas while ultimately reveling in its spirit." —Elisabeth Vincentelli, New York Times

"This irreverent, adults-only sequel … dares to be as tasteless as possible while replicating Seuss's trademark rhythms … flawless … juggling comedy, musical interludes, and audience interaction." —Regina Robbins, Time Out New York

WHO'S HOLIDAY runs 70 minutes with no intermission. The bar/lounge will be open before each performance.

12/15 7pm preview – all seats $20
