Hide AdA twist on the traditional tale, the story centres around Jack McJack, who is now living a life of fame, fortune and fanciness. He owns Giffnock’s most successful supermarket and everything is going his way – until the trickster of a farmer who gave him his magic beans returns and demands his share of the profits.
In the hilarious new tale he recalls the story of his heroic trip to the top of the beanstalk, before facing the farmer in an epic showdown.
There will be a dedicated British Sign Language Interpreted show (December 21 at 7.30pm) and “relaxed” (December 15, 1pm) performances for audience members with Additional Support Needs.
Anthony McReavy from East Renfrewshire Culture and Leisure said: “We’re delighted to attract top Scottish talent to Eastwood Park Theatre. Our Christmas show is full of fun, with lots of laughs and plenty of local references to keep all the family entertained.”
