Boom Hush Theatre Productions will perform a new family show called A Grimm Set of Tales at the Avenue Theatre in Sittingbourne, Kent, on May 15, 2026, and May 16, 2026. The production is a comedic retelling of traditional Grimm stories that aims to show a different side to the famous fairy tales. It uses a funny and fast-paced style similar to the popular Horrible Histories series.

The show features original dialogue mixed with well-known music from modern charts and stage musicals. Performances will start at 7.30pm at the venue, which has served as the town’s only dedicated theatre space since 1989. Tickets for the 88-seat auditorium are available for £14.00.

Proceeds from the event will be donated to the Oliver Fisher Special Care Baby Trust. This charity provides support for the neonatal unit at Medway Maritime Hospital, which cares for sick and premature babies from across the local area.

This performance is the fourth original production created by the theatre group. The team is known for creating new plays that support health awareness and local charitable causes.
