  • Grimm & Co. Writer's Pad Frederick Street Rotherham, England, S60 1QX United Kingdom (map)

FREE WORKSHOP & PERFORMANCE - reserve a space here.

Grimm and Co are excited to be working with Concerteenies to provide a workshop of creative activities alongside an engaging musical experience for 2-7 year olds and their grown-ups combines well-loved harp music with creative story-telling.

Polly and Louise perform a new musical version of ‘Mixed’ based on the original book by Chinese/ American author and illustrator Arree Chung, published by Macmillan Publishing Group, composed by Paul Rissmann by and commissioned in 2021 thanks to funding from Arts Council England.

'The Blues, Reds and Yellows lived in harmony. However, when one of the colours proclaims they are the best, discord breaks out and the colours decide to live in different parts of the city. Then one day a Yellow befriends a Blue and they become inseparable, discovering a world of different possibilities and colours.'

The concert also includes harp music by Grandjany, Henshall and Tournier. Sensory elements (bubbles, scarves and percussion), audience participation and vivid illustrations from the book will engage, inspire and entertain audiences young and old.

There will be creative activities for all attendees available from 1:15pm and the concert will begin at 2pm.
