Making this happen in year one straight out of the pandemic was a tough call but we did it, bringing national performers to Grimsby while showcasing a breadth of local talent.

A highlight was partnering with Walk the Plank and the creators of The Rubbish World of Dave Spud, Illuminated Films & Children’s ITV, to work with local students from Clee Academy to write and produce a bespoke animation called ‘Where Do All The Boats Go’ (exploring where the vessels on the Humber are going, from the ports of Grimsby and Immingham). The animation now has more than 90,000 views.
