For young audiences or young performers aged 8-12. Cast of 10.
Not your everyday telling of Jack and the Beanstalk, this version encourages audience participation and imagination. Prepare to meet a Giant who can’t remember what comes after “Fo”; Grittle, the invisible green witch from Greenwich Village, who has a problem with soap; and Chicken, an absolute champ at laying brass eggs. With a cast size of 10, and a set that is imagined and mimed, this 40-minute show can be performed by adults for an audience of kids, or by kids for an audience of families.
