It's not often you take the ankle biters to a Christmas play and end up enjoying it just as much as they do. Forget tinsel, soppy-eyed elves and far too cheery santas; 'Grimms' is a mysterious mix of the world's most loved folk tales.
With a name like Baba Yaga, the Russian witch is bound to entertain. It wouldn't be a folk story without a wicked Lady (Balladine) and a Ukrainian bride-stealing vampire adds a touch of fright to the Christmas mix. Whilst the old faithful, Snow White And The Seven Puppets will bring a smile to the dials of young and old. Production company Horla have a history of enchanting and slightly spooky Christmas shows. 'Grimms' is their sixth and final instalment. If your kids are over six, put a couple of tickets in Santa's sack this Christmas and give them a bit of gift-wrapped culture.
