Jack and the Beanstalk

Jack and the Beanstalk

Following a triumphant season at His Majesty’s Theatre last Christmas, this year’s panto spectacular once again stars Gary: Tank Commander, the Scottish BAFTA award-winning creation of actor and writer Greg McHugh.

Gary is joined by the return of fellow cast members from last year’s bumper Christmas show, including panto favourites Alan McHugh as Dame Trot, River City’s Paul J Corrigan as Pat the Cow, Aberdeen’s own Danielle Jam as The Spirit of the Beans and Julie Coombe as Mrs Blunderbore. Local Aberdonian performers Michael Karl-Lewis and Jemma Ferries also return as Jack Trot and Princess Jill.

Follow Jack and Jill, and climb a beanstalk of gigantic proportions to cloudland in the spectacular family pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk. Doomed to sell their trusty cow, will the gang outwit the evil giant and win riches beyond their wildest dreams? Featuring laughs, music, special effects and bundles of audience participation, this is the panto you’ve ‘bean’ waiting for!
