Have you heard about Jack? Come on, tell us a tale. When you need a good story, Jack never fails!
For as long as tales have been told, the character of Jack has been a constant presence in stories. Sometimes clever and cunning, sometimes lazy and foolish, but always coming out on top, fairy tales, folklore and nursery rhymes are full of tales of a lad named Jack.
Now, in this new musical for families and children, discover the truth behind the original fairytale hero. Join Jack in his many guises as he seeks his fortune, finds the love of his life, and, of course, meets the fearsome giant.
JACK! features traditional stories, original songs and live music and storytelling. With lots of opportunities to join in, plus brilliant live music, families will be singing along before you can say Fee Fie Fo Fum!
Written and composed by David Gibb. Directed by Tristan Pate. Design by Liz Cooke.
JACK! is a Little Seeds Music production supported by Help Musicians and The Met, Bury.
Please note that the previously advertised 11am show will now no longer be taking place.
