About this event

Macastory's Jack and the Beanstalk is part of the programme at the Scottish Storytelling Centre on Edinburgh's Royal Mile.

"Join Ron, Ferg and Claire as they take you on a great big Christmas cracker of an adventure (for little people!) in Macastory’s storytelling panto Jack and the Beanstalk."

What to expect:

  • Saturday 19 to Tuesday 22 December, 11am and 2pm each day
  • "Giant laughs, magical mayhem and traditional storytelling come together for a brilliant festive treat!"
  • Climb the beanstalk to the Giant's castle with Jack and his mother
  • The audience helps Jack outsmart the giant: sing along, cheer the goody, boo the baddy
  • In the Netherbow Theatre
  • Last year's run sold out, so the centre advises booking early
