The Grimm Sisters

Barbican Theatre are excited to host the premiere of Scratchworks Theatre Company’s brand new show, being performed at Teats Hill Amphitheatre (in Coxside)….

WOULD YOU LIKE TO HEAR A REMARKABLE STORY?

WE PROMISE IT WILL ONLY BE A LITTLE BIT GORY…

We are two sisters, The Sisters Grimm.
One is quite clever and one is quite… musical.
Our tales are greater than any others,
But they were stolen by our beastly brothers!
Now we must journey to fix their lies…
Or else the birds will pluck out our eyes!

You know the Brothers Grimm? The famous storytellers…or story stealers more like! We the Grimm Sisters – Brunhilda and Mitzi – are the true brains behind the books, but thanks to a treacherous father, a nasty curse and a great big dollop of bad luck, you’ve probably never heard of us!

The Grimm Sisters are here to set the record straight. Join them on the journey as they tell their twisted tales with a marvellous mix of live music, singing & comedy. Dive headfirst into their weird world of poisonous parents, courageous quests and  a magical frog called Jeremy (Jeremy is not to be trusted).

Keep your mind sharp and your guts gory, because in the blink of an eyelash, you might find yourself within the story…

Created brand new for Summer 2021, Scratchworks Theatre Company takes you by the socially-distanced hand and leads you outdoors to discover a joyful & mischievous interruption to the everyday.

Suitable for all ages 6+ and over.

Pay What You Decide!

This show is a Pay What You Decide event, which means you don’t have to pay until after you have seen the show!

We want to encourage more people to come and see shows, more often.

Pay What You Decide not only allows you to pay what you can afford, rather than a fixed ticket price, but also removes the risk of buying a ticket for a show in advance without knowing whether you are going to enjoy it or not.

Tickets are available to book in advance as usual, but there is no obligation for you to pay until after you have seen the show. You can then decide on a price which you think is suitable based on your experience, which means if you haven’t enjoyed it at all, you don’t have to pay anything.

All money collected will help Barbican pay the artists who have performed, and we therefore hope you will give generously.

Please ensure you have arrived and collected your tickets 15 minutes before the show starts in order to secure your seats.

At the end of the show, you can decide what to pay, either by cash, card or via our website.
