Jack and the Beanstalk (Adults Only)

DOORS OPEN: 30mins before performance time.

This performance has an interval and the bar will be open to purchase drinks and snacks.

From the same team that brought you the Elves and the Shoemaker in 2025, comes a brand-new Christmas extravaganza, Jack and the Beanstalk. 

Starring Berwick's very own Ross Graham (Crispin the Cobbler - Elves and the Shoemaker), the brilliant Jennifer Barron (Fizz McJingle - Elves and the Shoemaker), and irrepressibly silly Hannah Webb (D'Artagnan - The Three Musketeers) the traditional fairytale gets a Berwick makeover unlike any other.

Think you know the story? Think again. 

The Trott family are down on their luck, and when the very future of their farm (and Christmas) is on the line, they've got just one show to save the day. 

The Giant terrorises the good people of Berwick... although no one's ever seen him! The baubles on the farm just won't grow...despite planting the very best seeds money can buy! And Daisy the cow has disappeared...leaving Jack nothing to sell at the market!

Expect traditional panto silliness, audience participation, perhaps some interesting puppets, and a load of other old baubles.

Produced by Yardlight Theatre at The Straw Yard in association with The Maltings.
