Grimey Times Mary's Christmas In DunedinGrimey Times
Synopsis:
Morris Grimes has had a successful career as the author of a series of horror novels for children, as well as its very successful TV spinoff Grimey Times. But Grimes is ready to take his career in a new direction and an Autobiography of his life seems just the way to do it. However, Morris Grimes has many quirks the most obvious being his penchant for stalking and unfortunately it is the permission of those he has observed he needs to publish his book. Grimey Times follows Grimes journey as he is confronted by those from in his past. This hilarious, yet often poignant and evocative, piece follows this journey while also highlighting many alienating aspects of our modern world. This innovative production is a combination of theatre and film, presenting Grimes real world journey of meeting with those he has stalked while also interspersing filmic segments presenting episodes of his popular TV show Grimey Times.
