The past year has been packed with exciting achievements and milestones to celebrate for Green Bean Studios. We are excited to share that we have reached 100 live interactive storytime sessions, encouraging children to read for pleasure across the UK with fun family reading events. At our storytime events, children get to experience the wonderful stories from the Green Bean Collection brought to life by multi award-winning author and founder, Anita Frost, with live readings from her books. In addition to this, there are fun and engaging activities to get kids excited about reading and love books from a young age. Far from being just author-led events, other reading ambassadors of the Green Bean Studios team have got involved by reading at the storytime sessions, bringing their own unique storytelling magic to share with families. Since starting these events, their popularity has increased, with all of our events in 2023 being fully booked. This is a testament to the power of great storytelling and how author engagements in local communities are invaluable for helping more children to read for pleasure. Whether you have been to one of our storytime events before, or have never been but would love to come along, stay tuned for our storytime event dates in 2024. Connect on social media for the latest updates. We look forward to sharing the adventures of Green Bean and Friends with you next year!

On December 3, Green Bean Studios invited selected guests to an exclusive VIP Premiere Event at HOME Theatre Manchester. Guests were treated to an all-star experience at the Golden Green Ticket event, with the opportunity to have a private screening of an incredibly exciting project that Green Bean Studios has been working on in 2023. The Green Bean Studios team has been working hard all year, collaborating with A-lister celebrities, talented animators, musicians, and voice over artists to bring their vision into being. The studio has sourced some exceptional individuals to work on this project, from globally renowned stars, to up-and-coming talent from across the UK. Feedback from guests who attended the event was overwhelmingly positive, with many commenting on how well the team looked after all of the guests, the smooth running of the event, and the screening itself being a truly unique world-class experience that left viewers wanting more. One mother of a child aged 6 shared her daughter’s experience of the event: “Felicity really enjoyed it and was crying when we got home as she wanted to continue with the event”.
