About Macastory’s Jack And The Beanstalk

FEE FI FOE FUM!

NOW IT’S TIME FOR PANTO FUN!

In this fun-filled action packed panto we’ll climb the beanstalk to the castle of the Giant and meet all the usual characters: our hero Jack, his mother and the terrible Giant too, but watch out for some other surprise characters along the way!

And of course, we'll need YOU, the audience, to help Jack outsmart the giant, get home again and make sure it’s not just beans for the Christmas dinner!

So, come sing-along! Cheer the goody! Boo the baddy! But watch out… HE’S BEHIND YOU!!!

55 minutes of Perfect Panto Patter, full all the usual panto fun, excitement and laughs, especially devised for a young audience and their parents… it’s a BIG story for LITTLE people.

PANTO IS BACK!

OH YES IT IS!
