| Synopsis | A new look at an old favourite, with some highly entertaining and surprising twists. All of the much loved characters are here along with, of course, the beanstalk which Jack climbs twice, encountering some unexpected friends in the ogres who are not quite what they seem. Lots of hilarity, comedy business and audience participation runs through the fast paced plot. With not one but two evil villains, in Ivor Lotacash and Aster La Vista along with their inept assistants Flip and Flop, plotting to evict his mum, Dame Potts, Jack has his work cut out. With the support of his true love Bella, Jack enlists the help of the ogres to thwart the baddies and all live happily ever after. |
