The Fantasy World of Grizzy Bear, August 1982

“The Fantasy World of Grizzy Bear brings John Davies’ magical Puppets Galore to the Gordon Craig for a week of daytime family shows starting on Monday 23 August. Here are ‘puppets of all sizes for children of all ages’ in a colourful, entertaining and fast-moving 90-minute fun show — with lots of opportunity for you to join in, including a special spot for the under-5s at all 2.30 pm performances. Come and laugh with Grizzy and his friends (some of whom are on our cover this month), including Beattie Mouse (5 feet tall and 4 feet wide!) — that noted ballerina, Miss Shamrock Rabbit — Pink Ellie, a 7 foot pink elephant with the measles — Jethrow and the Puppet Galore dogs — and literally dozens more, from tiny rod puppets to larger-than-life figures. Enchantment for children from 2 1/2  to 102 1/2 — and at a very special price! All seats only 80p (Monday to Thursday) or £1.00 (Friday and Saturday)”.
