Theatre

The Selfish Giant

Date: Saturday, Apr 13 2019
Time: 1:30pm
Venue: Creative Workspace, Withywood

Family theatre from Soup Soap Theatre & Tessa Bide Productions.

Grinter is a giant. She lives happily alone in her huge cold house, surrounded by her huge snowy gardens, enclosed by her high, frost-covered walls. She shuts out the world, because long ago, the world shut her out, and so she hides, safe and quiet in her peaceful, icy home.

Outside the towering walls of her enormous garden, the world has been changing and there is very little green left. One day, the children – tired of playing on hard roads and grey rooftops – find a chink in the giant’s wall and climb through, changing the course of the children’s and Grinter’s lives forever.
