Jack and the Magical Beanstalk

There's plenty of fast banter, funny patter and ridiculous rhyme to enjoy in this traditional panto script by Channel 4 comedy writer Brian Luff. It's a script packed with great new comedy routines. Hapless palace guards Kosh & Bosh have numerous opportunities to show off their comic chemistry, including a messy gym scene, a "Standing Very Still" sketch and a pacy routine about a bunch of "Spies Behind the Pork Pies." Meanwhile, Dame Plump & her farmhand Charlie perform an hilarious sketch called "Counting Potatoes," which may turn out to be a bit of a panto classic. Charlie also hooks up with handsome hero Jack for a very funny "Eye Test" routine. Jack and the Magical Beanstalk is traditional family pantomime at its very best.
