a zoom show for Grandparents and Grandchildren who live apart

17 - 20 October, 2024

Best. Party. Ever. is an interactive zoom show that has been made especially for Grandparents and their little loved ones (biological and chosen) who live apart. Performed entirely on Zoom, Best. Party. Ever. features silly songs, parlour games, sock puppets and plenty of shenanigans that can be shared online, despite the distance. 

Wondering what to expext from the show? Find out how the experience unfolds via our social story below

Hosted by the master of ridiculous Matt Kelly (the Listies) with the delightful Genevieve Mooy, one thing is for sure, Zoom will never be the same again. 

GRANDPARENTS SAY:

'A delightful interactive experience.

A chance to do something exciting with my faraway grandchild.'

GRANDCHILDREN SAY:

“It was hilarious.

It was like making your mind go Huh? Ha? Whaa!!!”

Every year Matt and his Gran celebrate their birthday together, but this year Gran is off exploring the world, so they’ll have to party together online, and YOU’RE INVITED!

Will you be able to help Matt be able to pull off the Best Party Ever?

Will you be able to stop his twin brother Trevor from wrecking it all?

Will you be able to help him to decorate the house, make the card, crack the codes and most importantly blow out the candles?

When you purchase your ticket, you will be asked to provide contact details for both the Grandparent, and the Parent / Carer of the Grandchild who will be participating.

In the week leading up to the show, both parties will be sent a Zoom link, and further instructions on how to prepare for this intergenerational shindig!
