Overview

Synopsis

Taking place in medieval England, the musical makes some wacky additions to the classic childhood story. In the show, Jack climbs the fabled beanstalk, only to find a friendly, lovable Giant and a tap-dancing Golden Goose. Along the way, he encounters his long-lost father (a victim of amnesia) and a villainous Baron.
