Grimm's Fairy Tales

In a unique promenade performance, Abney Park Cemetery are opening their gates for audiences to join Red Riding Hood on her journey to grandmother’s house, to follow the breadcrumbs with Hansel & Gretel, encounter the mischievous Rumplestiltskin and meet a very unusual Godfather.

After five sell-out and critically acclaimed productions, including Alice In Wonderland and Macbeth, Pandemonium Performance are staging Grimm’s Fairy Tales, their biggest production yet, at Abney Park this July, this time taking the audience deep into the heart of the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm, they know and love.

Written and directed by Paul Linghorn, the play brings to life the fantastical stories of the Brothers Grimm in a spellbinding show that will capture the imaginations of adults and children alike, promising to be an unmissable opportunity to see these tales in a haunting yet beautiful and singular location.
