MANHATTAN, New York (WABC) -- Gavin Lee is a two-time Tony-nominated actor, who most recently starred as Squidward in "Spongebob Squarepants" on Broadway. Gavin admits that his new role as the reclusive Grinch in the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden's musical "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" is a character he really enjoys.

"Playing the Grinch is great for me because I am a father. I have got three kids, and I am playing roles at the moment that are suitable for my kids to watch, and they can see dad be silly on stage."
