Come experience this well-loved tale from Britain, retold with all the magic and mischief our marionettes can muster!
Marmalade the cow’s appetite drives the action from Jack’s humble cottage to the magnificent castle high above in the clouds. With a nod to an ancient telling of the tale, we discover if Jack, by taking gold and geese from the giant’s castle, is a thief, or simply reclaiming his family’s heritage.
The stage is hardly big enough to contain the one of a kind hand-crafted marionettes, let alone the ravenous, rummaging Giant.
A sense of adventure, optimism and three magic beans catapult Jack high into the sky where his destiny awaits.
You’ll thrill to the unexpected twists in this exciting production, which is tremendously suitable for people of all ages.

Following the performance of Jack and the Beanstalk, move to the Upper Gallery for more kid-friendly fun! Join the Arts Bus for a free workshop and popcorn. Create your own shadow puppets–we’ll even have a little theater where you can try them out! In addition, the White River Valley Chamber of Commerce has arranged for Santa and Mrs. Claus to stop by to visit with area children. Both of these events are free and open to the public.
