The resort’s casting department has begun accepting submissions for auditions for the annual event. Currently, they’re looking for musical theater performers and actors to bring the world of Whoville to life, as well as portray the world-infamous Grinch.

Below are the qualifications performers must have:

Actors

Seeking candidates to portray the roles of The Grinch.

  • Candidates must be 5’10” – 6’2” in height, slender to medium build. All submissions must include:
  • Headshot
  • Resume
  • Full-length photo in athletic wear
  • Video link – One-minute monologue portraying the character of The Grinch.

Candidates must be available for rehearsals October through mid-November, with performances taking place mid-November through early January.

If you think you have what it takes to unleash your inner Who or Grinch, be sure to hurry as fast as a sled down Mount Crumpit! Applications are only being accepted through Monday, June 28th.

Last year, modified Who-liday festivities took place at Universal’s Islands of Adventure, which included the Grinch and Whos making physically distant appearances and wearing face coverings, along with a Grinch-led photo session for guests. The auditions give evidence that the full celebration will be held this year with the return of The Grinchmas Who-liday Spectacular.
