Visiting Grandad

by Mike Kenny

Mike Kenny’s touching and funny play explores the special relationship between a grandad and his grandson.  Using stunning digital imagery created by leading digital artists KMA and original live music by Ivan Stott, Tutti Frutti has created another magical and moving experience for the young and their families to enjoy.

I didn’t like it, and neither would you
Staying with Grandad Jack
Cos at Grandad Jack’s house there’s nothing to do
There’s only Grandad Jack

I wanted to go, imagine the gloom
I’d to stay here with Grandad Jack
And I sat on the mat in his living room
Just looking at Grandad Jack.

Reluctantly Little Jack has to stay with Grandad for a whole afternoon, so when, to Little Jack’s great surprise, Grandad reveals that he is not ALL that he appears a whole new adventure begins. There is more to Grandad than meets the eye and he holds a delightful secret that is not so gloomy after all!
