Grimm Ade (poems) and Grimm John (guitar) reside at Castle Grimm. It’s not all a walk in the park. They share their innermost fears & woes & fitness strategies, 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 raised bed scenarios. Contains some acting.

The Very Grimm Brothers are Adrian Mealing, a Malvern Poetry Slam Champ who co-hosts Diversion at Ledbury Poetry House and sings à cappella with Men In General, A Fistful of Spookies and The Spooky Men’s Chorale (Aus). And John Denton (gtr) who wears several musical hats including John Denton’s Midnight Band and The Fezz, a homage to Steely Dan.
