Paid Student Matinees for Dr. Seuss's How the Grinch Stole Christmas!

The Old Globe is pleased to again offer a discounted opportunity for school groups to enjoy this year's production of Dr. Seuss's How the Grinch Stole Christmas!

For 2024, there are two student matinee performances available:

• Wednesday, Dec. 4 at 10:30 a.m.
• Wednesday, Dec. 11 at 10:30 a.m.

Due to a high level of interest in our student matinees, we are implementing some changes to the booking process this year to make it more streamlined and make the selection process more equitable for everyone.

Please read the following details carefully:

1. To be considered, this form must be filled out completely and submitted by 12 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 24, 2024.
2. Limit one application per school for up to 125 tickets. Please work with your principal and fellow teachers to combine requests.
3. Schools cannot exceed an 8:1 ratio students to adults. Adults who are 1:1 aides/paraeducators will not impact your ratio.
4. Request an accurate number of tickets. Additional tickets are difficult to obtain once the raffle winners are announced.
5. Student matinee applications will be entered into a raffle system. Once the application period closes, all applicants will be entered into a raffle for a chance to attend either of our two performances. We will continue drawing names until all available spots for the performances are filled. Applying DOES NOT GUARANTEE A SPOT for any of the performances.
6. Raffle winners will be notified by Saturday, Sept. 28. If your application is selected, you will receive a notification with further details about performance dates and ticket information. Any applications that are not selected will be put on our waitlist and will be contacted if additional space becomes available.
7. Payments need to be received on or before the deadline. Once the raffle winners have been selected, we will reserve the number of seats that the raffle winner's group requires, and a 20% non-refundable deposit is due within 3 weeks from the date of raffle win. Raffle winners then have until 4 weeks prior to their performance date to provide the final count and turn in their balance. 
8. Please note that any orders that are not paid on time will have their seats released by 5 p.m. on the payment due date.
9. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. THERE ARE NO REFUNDS OR CANCELLATIONS ON TICKETS ONCE THE PAYMENT HAS BEEN MADE.
10. If you have any questions about the booking process, please reach out to Group Sale Manager, Matt Pequeno, with any questions. Please do not call the Box Office to inquire about the status of your application. Calling will not improve your chances on the raffle.
