Join us for a magical and interactive adventure as FFAE presents Jack and the Beanstalk!
When Jack trades the family cow for a handful of mysterious magic beans, he has no idea the adventure that awaits him. Overnight, a giant beanstalk grows high into the clouds, leading Jack to a land of giants, treasures, and surprising friendships.
In this special FFAE interactive production, children are invited to sit right on stage and become part of the story. They’ll help Jack climb the beanstalk, meet colorful characters, explore the world above the clouds, and maybe even help outsmart a giant or two.
Filled with music, laughter, and audience participation, Jack and the Beanstalk is a delightful introduction to live theatre where imagination grows as tall as the beanstalk itself.
This performance is a School Matinee intended for student groups of 10 or more, but all guests are welcome to attend. To view non‑student matinee performance times, click here.
