Jack a young boy from a poor family, exchanges the family cow for some magic beans. The beans grow overnight into a huge beanstalk which Jack climbs into the clouds, arriving at a magical land and changing his fortunes! There s been a Giant stealing from the land. And he s taken the Girl with the Harp, who sang beautiful songs to the chickens and made them happy. So the chickens have hatched a plan to get her back - and it involves Milkywhite the cow, and their neighbour - Jack! Can the clever chickens get lazy-bones Jack to go and defeat the giant? How can they even get him to grow a beanstalk? The stories may be gigantic, but with Mike Kenny and Gail McIntyre in charge there s going to be plenty for little people to enjoy. Running time approximately one and a half hours including an interval. For everyone aged 4 and over. This is not a pantomime!
