You remember, not so long ago, when the Dr. Seuss masterpiece How the Grinch Stole Christmas came to TV but once a year? Now it’s on, it seems, daily between Halloween and New Year’s. As a result, we’ve lost something as a country, haven’t we?
What kind of future are we leaving to our children, asking them to grow up in a nation where hearing “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch” is no longer a rare treat?
Thankfully, you can make the experience special all over again. The stage-musical version of the greatest-secular-Christmas-story-ever-told comes to the Winspear Opera House tonight. It runs through Sunday, but don’t wait too long. You’ve still got to fit in your Congressionally-mandated annual viewing of It’s a Wonderful Life too.
Is your heart two sizes too small for all this holiday cheer? Fine. Here are other things to do in Dallas.
