‘Totally grantastic!’ David Walliams’ Gangsta Granny comes to life in York

If you love David Walliams’ stories, you’re in for a major treat this month.

His best-selling book Gangsta Granny is hurtling towards the Grand Opera House stage – and the author himself loves it.

“The brilliant Birmingham Stage Company has produced a fantastic show,” David said. “It’s superb! And so much better than the book!”

So what’s it all about? It’s Friday night and Ben knows that means only one thing – staying with Granny.

There will be cabbage soup, cabbage pie and cabbage cake to eat and Ben knows one thing for sure – it’s going to be soooooo boring…

But what Ben doesn’t know is that Granny has a secret. And Friday nights are about to get more exciting than he could possibly imagine, as he embarks on the adventure of a lifetime with his very own Gangsta Granny!

Brought to life by the same company who adapted Horrible Histories for the stage, the show has won rave reviews:

The show is in town for four days, with two shows each day so there are plenty of chances to bring the family to what looks set to be a real feel-good show.
