Grandmother is just the tonic!

A CHILDREN’S theatre show featuring a giant grandma is proving to be such a ticket puller that its run has been extended until mid February.

Birmingham Stage Company’s adaptation of George’s Marvellous Medicine was due to run until the end of January but has now been extended at the city’s Old Rep Theatre in Station Street until February 13.

BSC manager Neal Foster said George looks likely to be their most successful festive show in 18 years.
