Jack and the Beanstalk
Bursting with songs, a growbag packed with plant-based humour, and the best cow this side of the gap, this year’s Palace panto promises a Gardener’s World of wonder, amazement, and full-blown festive mischief.
Young Jack, full of courage and curiosity, trades his beloved cow for a handful of magic beans, and before you know it, he’s scaling a towering beanstalk into the sky. There, he must outwit the greedy Giant, contend with a delightfully clumsy Fairy, and face down the fearsome (and fabulously villainous) Dame Judy Henchman. It’s a classic tale of adventure, mischief, and plenty of heart.
