South Lanarkshire Leisure and Culture

 

South Lanarkshire Leisure and Culture SCIO and New College Lanarkshire proudly present Jack and the Beanstalk.

Fee, Fi, Fo, Fum… to our panto, you must come!

Welcome to a mystical magical fairytale pantomime kingdom… somewhere in the deepest, darkest depths of South Lanarkshire… where the locals are under threat from the gruesome Giant Greedyguts and his loathsome enforcer, Fleshcreep.

The Giant has gobbled up all the animals in town… except Moomoo: the disco dancing coo-coo of Dame Trot and her two kids… Jack and Jessie.

Jack loves Princess Lulu - Lulu loves Jack. But he’s just a commoner and surely they can never be wed. Or can they?

Trainee Fairy Farquhar loves Jessie - Jessie has her head in the clouds. And even if she realised, fairies can’t marry mortals. Or can they?

When Princess Lulu is kidnapped by the Giant, and Fleshcreep tricks Jessie into selling Moomoo for a bag of beans, is all hope lost? Or will Fairy Farquhar be able to use the explosive power of beans to get Jack and his friends up to the Giant’s castle in Cloudland before his lunch is served?

Find out in this year’s magical family panto, as we climb the magic beanstalk for a roller-coaster journey of adventure, laughter, thrills and spills.
