Beanstalk

Venue: CPAC Studio

Artist: Spare Parts Puppet Theatre

Promoter: Ticketlink

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

Do we really know what happened that day when Jack unexpectedly barged into the giant’s kitchen?

Was it the grim fee-fi-fo-fum bone-crunching tale we’ve all grown up with, or is there a different story waiting to be told?

Beanstalk is the hilarious retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk told from the giant’s point of view.

Step into Brian’s cloud-making kitchen where he cooks up carrots, fluffy clouds and a few stories from his not-so-easy life as a giant.

Funny, unapologetically playful and utterly charming, Beanstalk will have you laughing at the antics of a loaf of bread (Jack), reeling in horror at the squishing of a tomato (a villager), and marvelling at the clever trickery that brings the magic of cloud creation to life.
