Jack And The Beanstalk is a glitter-filled festive feast for all the family. Get ready to boo the baddies, cheer the hero, sing along and double up with laugher at the Lyric Hammersmith’s new panto dame.

A classic panto tale, Jack And The Beanstalk tells the story of Jack, who is tricked into trading his cow for some magic beans. But the beans grow into a beanstalk leading to a magical land ruled by a giant!
