Grimm Ade (poems) and Grimm John (guitar) reside with a hand-picked staff at Castle Grimm. It isn’t all a walk in the estate. They share their innermost fears & woes & fitness plans, the joys of wild swimming, natural cycling and Castle Grimm’s secret. Heart-warming and funny. Told through poems, music, microscopic stories, a dream and a fly past, wind permitting. Contains some acting.
