The PEOPLE vs. GRINCH Corp.

YOU HAVE BEEN SUMMONED FOR JURY SERVICE

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 7, 2024  7:30 p.m.
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2024 2:30 p.m.

It's 30 years after How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and little Miss Cindy Lou Who (who is now thirty-two) has - after years of therapy and PTSD - become an activist lawyer on the side of everything Christmas and childhood-related. She is the lead lawyer in the case of The People vs. GRINCH Corp., a class-action lawsuit against the multi-million-dollar conglomerate that is infamous for its ridiculously dangerous and highly sought-after products - all aimed at children and youth. The company, founded by Mr. Grinch himself to provide toys to the wonderful residents of Whoville, is now run by a board of directors who seem to have lost sight of the firm's original mission.

We sit in the courtroom of the trial. YOU are the jury in this very important case. The evidence is mounting against this firm - are they truly evil, or just misguided? Watch as the trial unfolds - and decide the fate of the GRINCH Corp.!
