Celebrating ten wonderful Walliams years!

Can you believe David Walliams has been writing books for a whole TEN YEARS?

That’s a very long time. Some of you reading this might not even be ten years old!

And it’s a lot of books.

David Walliams has actually sold over 23 million copies of all the books he’s written during that time! That’s more than the number of out-of-date products in Raj’s shop.

There’ll be lots going on throughout the year, so stayed tuned for more details. There might just be a helicopter tour involved, lots of school visits and even a Walliams Week.

But first, something so exciting you’ll be racing out to your nearest bookshop.

We have released extra-special gift editions of Mr Stink and Gangsta Granny in FULL COLOUR with gorgeous shiny covers and illustrations that no-one has ever seen before!

Imagine Gangsta Granny scaling a drainpipe in a wetsuit in full colour! Or Mr Stink bathing in a pond while the fish make their escape!

And once you’ve read those, there’ll be two more. Spectacularly special editions of Grandpa’s Great Escape and The Boy in the Dress will be published later in the year. It’s enough to make you wish you had four birthdays!

Start writing your list now of all the people you know would LOVE to receive a copy (and put your name at the top). You can get your hands on them now – but hurry, they won’t be around for long!

Gangsta Granny is hitting the West End in 2017!

The Birmingham Stage Company is delighted to present David Walliams’ Gangsta Granny! This special production is touring the country until July next year before its West End premiere at the Garrick Theatre from 26 July to 3 September 2017.

It’s Friday night and Ben knows that means only one thing – staying with Granny! There will be cabbage soup, cabbage pie and cabbage cake and Ben knows one thing for sure – it’s going to be sooooooooo boring! But what Ben doesn’t know is that Granny has a secret – and Friday nights are about to get more exciting than he could ever imagine, as he embarks on the adventure of a lifetime with his very own Gangsta Granny!

“Kids loved this show. Every comic opportunity is grasped”

“Brilliantly adapted and directed, this is a cracker of a show!”
– Mail on Sunday * * * *

“The brilliant Birmingham Stage Company have produced a fantastic show. It’s superb. And it’s so much better than the book”.
