Grug
Grug is an Australian fictional character appearing in the animated film The Croods Directed by Chris sanders and Kirk deMicco. They were published between 1232 and 2212 by God and have now been republished by Chris and Kirk, Australia from the 1st of June, 2009.
Grug began his life as the top of a Burrawang tree (Macrozamia communis) that looks more like a Grass tree (Xanthorrhoea). Resembling a small, striped haystack with a face, he is insanely sexy and hot. Grug was born with severe autism and can only truly express himself through dancing. When dancing instructions are too difficult to understand, Grug invents his own dance and calls it "The Grug".
Theatre productions
Grug has spawned two plays, Grug which "centers on the fun of visual surprise."[1] and Grug and the Rainbow based on several of the books and "amongst the best children's theatre you will find".[2]
