Fee fi fo fum!
Giant Greedyguts has come!
Up his castle in the clouds, Giant Greedyguts plans to destroy the pantomime kingdom of Inverstrone if Dame Trot doesn’t give him her precious cow, Moomoo, for his lunch. This is just the adventure that Dame Trot’s daredevil daughter, Jack, has been waiting for. She swears to find a way up to Cloudland to defeat the Giant and save Inverstrone. But how? Did somebody say “Magic Beans?”
Join Jack and all your favourite Beacon panto regulars as they climb the magic beanstalk to take on not only the Giant, but the evil sorceress, Voldemorra, and her hapless henchman, Snotbag as they try to rescue Moomoo the Coocoo. And all is not as it seems! In a rollercoaster ride of thrills, spills, song, dance and comic mayhem, there are endless twists and turns in store to keep you on the edge of your seats as you cheer the goodies and boo the baddies!
