JACK & THE BEANSTALK
by Jackie Mellor

Once upon a time, there was a strapping lad named Jack Slightly-Barmy who lived in a very small cottage with his mother, Mrs Slightly-Barmy. They had no money, three talking cows and, after Jack’s fateful encounter with a stranger on the way to market, a very large beanstalk in their backyard.

How Jack became rich, defeated a giant and rescued a lovely maiden told in wacky panto style!

“utterly delightful.” Elaine Liner, Dallas Observer

“Check your inhibitions at the door.” Nancy Churnin, The Dallas Morning News
