Jack & the Beanstalk is at Halifax’s Victoria Theatre…oh yes it is!

The Trots are so poor they don’t have a bean to their name, and what is more there is a giant terrifying the village. Come and see if Jack can defeat the giant, win the heart of the girl he loves and turn the Trots’ fortunes around.

Once again The Victoria Theatre will have all the ingredients for a perfect family panto, with a dastardly villain, a hapless comic and a hilarious panto dame, as well as fabulous musical numbers and bags of slapstick fun!

Jack & The Beanstalk is the panto at Halifax’s Victoria Theatre with Adam Stafford returning as Dame Trot

Comic Josh Benson will be returning for his 2nd panto as Joshin’ Josh, Dame Trot’s wacky son.

Richard Lloyd is returning for his second year too playing Fleshcreep, the snazzy dressed panto villain. Nikki Schofield has appeared in numerous Halifax pantomimes and will be playing the part of the Fairy this year.

 “I am looking forward to getting back on stage and having fun with everyone but most of all hearing the audiences enjoying themselves again,” says Nikki. “Shows and productions have been hugely missed and I can’t wait to bring back that joy to so many people.”

Jack & the Beanstalk runs from Saturday 11th December 2021 to Sunday 2nd January 2022. Tickets are available from £17 from www.victoriatheatre.co.uk or by calling the Box Office on 01422 351158.
