Free children's dance theatre production "Funny-Granny Strikes Back" to be staged in August (with photo)
***************************************************************

     The children's dance theatre production "Funny-Granny Strikes Back", featuring songs, dance, stories and interactive activities to let children experience onstage fun, will be staged in August. The show, presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), will be conducted in Cantonese with free admission on a first-come, first-served basis.

One day when Man-chai steps onto a road without looking up from his phone, Funny-Granny speeds to the rescue. After discovering that Man-chai often behaves badly, she decides to call up her friends to help him.
