An uplifting tale of love, courage and letting go.
Abi and her Grandad
tell each other Anansi folktales. They
play games as they work together in the garden among the beautiful flowers and
tasty vegetables. As they plant
memories, they share secrets and develop a bond that nothing can break. Grandad
is as smart and mischievous as the wily Anansi legend.
Can he find a way to
tell his granddaughter about his plans to return to Jamaica, his beloved

Join our intrepid characters in this humorous and heartfelt inter-generational adventure, as they step into the unexpected. With evocative live music, Grandad Anansi is an uplifting tale of love, courage and letting go.
