Weathervane Theatre to Present Final Engagement of Who’s Holiday!

WHITEFIELD, NH—Weathervane Theatre is pleased to present Who’s Holiday! for its final run. Delighting North Country audiences the past three years and hailed by The New York Times as “brassy” and “very funny,” Matthew Lombardo’s hilarious holiday hit will perform for its final season at the Sugar Hill Meetinghouse on Sunday, November 29 at 3 PM, Wednesday, December 2 at 2 PM and 7 PM, and Friday, December 4 at 7 PM. Additionally, it’ll play at Gorham’s Medallion Opera House on Saturday, December 5 at 7 PM.

ABOUT

Get ready for a wildly funny, surprisingly heartfelt adults-only comedy about The Grinch‘s beloved Cindy Lou Who, now grown up, fresh out of jail, and living in a trailer park. Join Cindy Lou as she recalls that fateful Christmas Eve when she first met the Grinch, and the twisted turn her life has taken since.

Starring as Cindy Lou Who is Marisa Kirby. A two-time New Hampshire Theatre Alliance Award winner (The Story Goes On and Miss Adelaide in Guys and Dolls), Kirby is a genuine triple threat who has dazzled Weathervane audiences over nine seasons, portraying iconic leading ladies like Reno Sweeney (Anything Goes), Titania (A Midsummer Night’s Dream), and Audrey (Little Shop of Horrors).

Kirby charmed audiences over the past three holiday seasons as Cindy Lou Who and is thrilled to return as everyone’s favorite Whoville resident.

“I grew up watching “The Grinch,” and I never would have imagined that one day I’d get to play grown-up Cindy Lou Who, said Kirby. “Over the past four years, this show has become one of my favorite holiday traditions, and I’ve had an absolute blast entertaining the adults of the North Country. I’m so grateful to everyone who has come out to see the show. It’s been a WHO-lot of fun, and I hope you’ll join me for one last visit to Whoville!” 

Weathervane Producing Artistic Director Ethan Paulini directs Who’s Holiday!. The additional creative team includes Jeremy Baldauf (sound and lighting design), Rien Schlecht (costume and production design), and Hannah Showalter (associate designer). Rien Schlecht and Hannah Showalter stage manage the production. Who’s Holiday! runs 75 minutes with no intermission and is recommended for adults only.

Who’s Holiday! is part of Weathervane’s holiday season, running November 29 to December 6, 2026, at Sugar Hill Meetinghouse.
