Studio
Players is presenting “Jack and the
Beanstalk" a new version
of the familiar folk tale. Performances are at 1:30 and 3:30 PM on Saturdays and
Sundays, April 26, 27, May 3 and 4.
The story of Jack
and the Beanstalk needs no introduction, but this version of the familiar folk
tale introduces an assortment of characters. To save his family from
starvation, Jack must sell their beloved cow, Buttercup, but ends up trading
for a handful of beans. The beans are magic, of course, and sprout into a
beanstalk which reaches into the sky. With the help of his good fairy,
Frippery, Jack saves his father and destroys the evil giant. Audiences will be
enchanted with stage magic in this classic tale.
