The Scouse Jack and the Beanstalk

Liverpool’s Royal Court Theatre is getting ready for The Scouse Jack and the Beanstalk.

It’s a show with “stupid jokes, live music and utterly inappropriate content” so is definitely not acceptable for children under 16.

Jack’s mum is fuuumin’. That little divvy has taken their only cow to St John’s and instead of selling him for cash, he brought back a handful of beans. Then, to make matters worse, he lashed them into the back yard and this massive weed has grown up through her bespoke Italian paving stones.

Local stars include Lindzi Germain, Andrew Schofield, Jake Abraham, Michael Fletcher, Hayley Sheen, Keddy Sutton, Emma Grace Arends, Emma Bispham and Liam Tobin. Howard Gray is muscial director, and directing is Stephen Fletcher.

It runs from November 11 until January 21.
