Grandad Anansi
Grandad Anansi
An uplifting story of love, courage and letting go!
Grandad is as smart and mischievous as the wily spider Anansi, but can he find a way to tell his granddaughter about his plans to return to his beloved homeland in the Caribbean? Set in a beautiful garden and filled with original songs and classic Jamaican folktales, Grandad Anansi is an uplifting story of love, courage and letting go.
Written by award-winning children’s author Elayne Ogbeta, Grandad Anansi was originally produced by Half Moon Theatre and Z-arts.
Grandad Anansi tours to school across Suffolk in 2026 – please contact creativecommunities@wosleytheatre.co.uk to arrange a school booking.
The show run also features two performances in NW2, the gold-roofed building opposite the main New Wolsey Theatre building, on Sat 9 May!
