Jack and the Beanstalk
Connaught Theatre 5 December 2008 - 4 January 2009
to see this fantastic pantomime by entering our competitions.
Let us tell you a story….
There was once a lad called Jack who lived with his mum Dame Daisy in a little cottage.
They were very poor and as times got harder the only thing they had left to sell was their beloved cow Buttercup.
Jack takes Buttercup to the market and on the way he meets an old lady who offers to buy Buttercup for a bag of beans.
Jack agrees but what he doesn't know is that the beans are magical.
Jack takes the beans home and gives them to his mum who is furious and throws them out of the window.
What happens next….
Is this where the Fie Fi Fo FUN begins?
Will Jack defeat the giant?
Will he rescue Clarice the Hen?
Join us this Christmas and see what happens next.
