Jack and the Beanstalk

A Production of Huge Proportions
Bean Stock (er, stalk) climbing after livestock liquidaton.

No, the setting is not Wall Street, but Jack does offer a few surprises. Rather than Jack being a thief, we show Jack as more of an adventurer. All the memorable elements of the classic story remain, but this producton explores Jack's motives a little more carefully than run-of-the-mill children's books.

The giant is big enough to thrill older kids, but humorous enough to allay the fears of most youngsters. Of course, as is essential in all our productions, there is plenty of humor and content to keep adults entertained as well.

What's "Jack and the Beanstalk" About???

Fe-fi-fo-fum. A timely version of the classic children’s tale about the young lad that doesn’t know beans about trading, but still manages to climb his way to the top. Jack finds that happiness lies in helping others rather than mere personal gain. Told with rod puppets and some surprising twists, Jack has long been a favorite of our audiences.
