Beanstalk at the Jetty Memorial Theatre

2025 Jetty Theatre Season Show. Written by Sam Longley. A Spare Part Puppet Theatre Production. Everyone knows Jack’s story, but what about the giants? Do you really know what happened that day when Jack unexpectedly barged into the giant’s kitchen? Was it the grim fee-fi-fo-fum bone-crunching tale you've all grown up with, or is there a different story waiting to be told? Beanstalk is the hilarious retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk told from the giant’s point of view. Step into Brian’s cloud-making kitchen where he cooks up carrots, fluffy clouds and a few stories from his not-so-easy life as a giant. Funny, unapologetically playful and utterly charming, Beanstalk will have you laughing at the antics of a loaf of bread (Jack), reeling in horror at the squishing of a tomato (a villager), and marvelling at the clever trickery that brings the magic of cloud creation to life. “Very funny, very charming, this was obviously and audibly adored by the youngsters in the audience but has plenty for grown-ups to love.” Stage Whispers
