Back by popular demand! Following its 2017 critically-acclaimed world premiere, which introduced many New York audiences to the widely popular British art form known as the Panto, Jack & the Beanstalk returns this holiday season with even more radical joy.
Jack needs the whole town's support to help them chop down the beanstalk. In the process, Jack and their neighbors free themselves from their oppressor, the plundering Giant Rump.
Written by disabled actor/writer Mat Fraser, directed by feminist artist Julie Atlas Muz and featuring an intergenerational, mixed-ability cast, Jack & the Beanstalk brings the Lower East Side together with a family-friendly holiday production that is inherently irreverent, lightly political, and has the message that eventually good triumphs over evil.
Weekends throughout December-2PM, 3PM, and 7PM. (Friday-Sunday/Dec 14-16; Thursday-Sunday/Dec 20-23; Thursday-Sunday /Dec 27-30). American Sign Language (ASL) Performance on December 15, 2018 at 2:00 PM. Abrons Arts Center, 466 Grand Street, New York, NY 10002 | Playhouse. TIX: $20-45 (LINK)
