About Jack and the Beanstalk: What a Whopper!

Written by Jon Bradfield & Martin Hooper with songs by Jon Bradfield Directed by Andrew Beckett Laugh your stockings off to this profoundly silly and staggeringly naughty new adults-only pantomime, from the team behind Sleeping Beauty Takes A Prick (★★★★★ "the best adult pantomime in London" - Theatre Weekly).

Jack Trott is very poor, very gay and very horny, living with his mum on a dilapidated dairy farm ten miles from the nearest Grindr user. When he sells their beloved cow for a handful of magic beans, his mum throws them in the compost - and they wake up to the biggest, thickest stalk they've ever seen. Is there a giant at the top? And if so... is he all in proportion? This magical musical adventure is everything a panto should be - just NOT for all the family! Following his unforgettable performance as Queen Gertrude, the outrageous Matthew Baldwin ("wonderful as ever" - Time Out) returns to play Dame Trott.

Reviews:
★★★★★
"A hilarious and raucous night out. The script is comedy genius. With a colourful, fun set, camp costumes, outrageously crude and larger-than-life characters and musical theatre references for days, you won’t find another show like it." Curtain Call.
★★★★
"The Grande Dame of adult panto returns. Impeccably produced, flawlessly performed, and riotously funny. Head and shoulders above anything of its kind." Reviews Hub
★★★★
"A bucolic burlesque of filth, fun and fairy folk." The Stage
★★★★. "A hilariously saucy, queer-celebratory take on the classic pantomime spirit we all know and love." West End Best Friend
★★★★
"A British panto on queer steroids. Stellar performances. Leaves you with your sides aching" Operation Live Theatre
★★★★★
"The funniest show I have ever seen" What's Good To Do
★★★★
"Adult pantomime at its finest: bold, brilliant, rude, and utterly hilarious. A night of pure joy that is as wild as it is memorable" North West End
★★★★
"A whopping amount of fun" Theatre & Tonic
