About Us
Granny Jackson's Dead… but her story isn't. Her family would like to invite all those who knew her to Graham Road (except the Kellys from the Glens, anyone from the council, Big Jim, Miss Gilmour, and Brendan – he knows what he did) to pay their respects and give her a good send off. She will be dearly missed by her devoted, adoring, clever, beautiful, hardworking, long-suffering, generous-to-a-fault daughter Susan, and by the rest of the family.
P.S anyone who would like to connect with her – she will also be streamed across several platforms and mixed realities – Darren Jackson (grandson)
After the evening shows on Thursday and Friday you're cordially invited to join the cast from Belfast's Big Telly Theatre Company at the Fork 'N' Ale for a friendly chat about Granny and the show in which she posthumously stars, and to chew the cud on grief technology – can and should it help us mourn and remember? In loving memory of Granny Jackson, The Fork 'N' Ale are kindly offering a discount on drinks to all those who have attended her Wake.
With profound thanks to Elms Funeral Directors of Weston-super-Mare for supplying Granny's coffin. https://www.theelmsfuneraldirectors.co.uk/
