From cozy winter nights to sun-soaked summers, every season is full of whimsical rituals that embrace the year’s changing weather.
As we embark on an adventure through the seasons with Grand Soft Day, we discover how the cast (Helen Gregg, Jonathan Gunning, Greg Hall and Linda Scaramella) like to celebrate Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn!
- Helen: Stay in with a good book.
- Jonathan: Stomp around the muddy woods with my scruffy dog, Nori.
- Greg: Sit beside a cozy fire.
- Linda: Have a latte at a coffee shop while listening to jazz.
- Helen: Go to Paris!
- Jonathan: Plant a lot of seeds and bicycle in the mountains.
- Greg: Plant some flowers in the garden.
- Linda: Watch the trees blossom.
- Helen: Swim in the sea.
- Jonathan: Eat lots and lots of fruit outdoors.
- Greg: Lie on a nice sandy beach.
- Linda: Have a BBQ.
- Helen: Knit myself (or someone else) a woolly jumper.
- Jonathan: Harvest apples, pumpkins and the last of the tomatoes.
- Greg: Go for a walk in the forest.
- Linda: Crunch through leaves on an autumnal walk
Grand Soft Day is a playful, curious and charming new show for young children that celebrates the wonder of the world around us, teaching us to always be prepared even though you don’t know what the day will bring.
A predominantly non-verbal piece, Grand Soft Day combines physical storytelling, live music and colourful wellies.
You can see the show here:
- Brighton Festival: 25th & 26th May 2024
- Southbank Centre, London: 1st & 2nd June 2024
