Everyone knows Jack’s story, but what about the giant’s?

Beanstalk is a hilarious twist on the age-old tale of Jack and the Beanstalk, told from the giant’s point of view.

Funny, unapologetically playful and utterly charming, Beanstalk will have your students enthralled by the ups and downs of a loaf of bread (Jack), reeling in horror at the squishing of a tomato (a villager), and marvelling at the science and theatre trickery that brings the magic of cloud creation to life.

Students will learn about empathy, tolerance, and the importance of seeing the world from another person’s perspective, leaving them with plenty to think about long after they leave the theatre.
