Jack lives on the most boring farm in the most boring town. His only friend is Bessie the cow and his family is on the edge of losing their farm. Jack’s life pretty much feels like the worst… that is until he meets a mysterious wizard with a handful of magic beans and the promise of adventure. But just how far will Jack go for excitement, fame, and fortune when it means hurting his friends? This inventive new take on Jack and the Beanstalk, written by Jessie Richardson Award winning puppet show creator Randi Edmundson, features puppetry, original music, and, best of all, magic. Keep your eyes peeled or you might just miss it.
