Gangsta Granny

Date: Wednesday, Jun 12 2019
Time: 6:30pm
Venue: South Street Playing Fields

Outdoor theatre specialists Heartbreak Productions perform an open-air staging of David Walliams’ brilliant children’s novel Gangsta Granny.

Heartbreak Productions visit South Street Playing Fields with their fast-paced, laugh-out-loud adaptation of this popular children’s story.

Meet Ben, an 11-year-old wannabe plumber fed up with spending his Friday nights at granny’s. All she wants to do is play scrabble and eat cabbage – not exactly his idea of fun!

EatDrink24/7 Launch Party is back on July 8 2026!
Exclusive collabs from Bristol’s favourite food vendors, available for one night only. Be first to grab your free copy of the EatDrink24/7 guide – plus every ticket comes with a free limited-edition beer can.

Hungry and bored, Ben goes searching for something more edible in the kitchen and stumbles upon an old biscuit tin. The tin holds more than just digestives, however, it contains Granny’s biggest secret…

Ben’s Granny is an international jewel thief – and she needs his help to pull off her biggest heist yet.

Bring chairs, blankets, picnics etcetera.

June 12, South Street Playing Fields, 6.30pm (arrive from 5pm).
