GRANDPA POSEIDON
About this event
A kid is on holiday in a seaside town.
A seagull is stealing a chip.
And Poseidon is sat at a bus stop staring at the ocean.
From internationally award winning Wright&Grainger comes their first show for younger audiences.
It’s a story about being somewhere that feels new, about being scared of change, about talking, listening and helping someone find their feet in an unfamiliar landscape. It’s a story told through songs, post-it notes and a handful of little Bluetooth speakers. It’s a story about feeling lost, and about finding your way again. It’s a story about a rainy seaside town, a retired god, and a young kid building a den.
