My boys and I had the best time and it was such a great show! Most definitely recommended seeing the Grinch. For all ages!
Fun to watch the How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Loved the interaction of the crowd and the cast. The scavenger hunt before in the lobby was fun and interactive
Wonderful performances geared to children but enjoyed by all ages. Staff is friendly and helpful, there are always great activities in the lobby that are tied to the performance, and there is usually some type of photo wall to capture memories of your visit. We did a season ticket package and I plan to renew for next year.
The Art here at the Minneapolis Institute of Art is amazing. Stunning. It would take a few days to really see everything.
We have been to a few shows here – it is always magical! We saw How The Grinch Stole Christmas at the beginning of January and all 5 of our kids were very impressed. My 7 year old especially loved the interactive parts – she got to high five a Who 🙂
Super fun and interesting place to bring your family. I enjoyed experiencing the zip zap circus, it was incredible! Such talent and story telling. The theatre is easy to get in and out of and there is plenty of room in the lobby for hanging out before and after the show. They do have refreshments that can be purchased, and the bathrooms were large and very clean. There is free street parking but I used the pay parking ramp.
Been going to shows since the 90s at CTC – they continue to do a wonderful job! My children now go and love it, as well. The parking ramp is not cheap, per se, but when it’s cold out it’s worth it to be parked closer ($18 ramp parking, payment is card only).
Amazing productions for all ages, as well as a great resource for education! CTC truly goes above and beyond to put kids first, without talking down to them for being young. They’re explicitly aware of some of their issues from past decades, and their accountability and transparency gives me renewed trust in their current team. As an adult, my partners and I love to go see shows here even though we don’t have any children in our lives.
