An eerie, elegant tale without words about death, love, and monsters.
After their grandmother passes away, a child suspects they are being pursued by the smoke demon shapeshifter of the old woman’s stories.
The Griegol is a dark, funny, and moving fantasy for brave children and lovers of atmospheric theatre. From Trick of the Light Theatre (The Bookbinder, The Road That Wasn’t There) this strikingly inventive new work conjures magic and laughter out of silhouettes, puppetry, live music and animation.
“50 minutes of dynamism, cleverness and beauty… A touching, delightful and exciting theatrical experience.” – Theatreview
“Charming, poignant, and expertly performed by a multi-talented cast, The Griegol is a unique theatre experience.” – Theatrescenes
Recommended for age 7+. Please note, the story frankly acknowledges death as a part of life.
