Panto season is back — and this year Edinburgh’s Festival Theatre brings the magical tale of Jack and the Beanstalk to life in spectacular style.
Returning favourites Allan Stewart, Grant Stott and Jordan Young lead the cast in this all-singing, all-dancing festive adventure. Expect stunning sets, dazzling costumes, and the trademark humour that’s made the Festival Theatre panto a Christmas tradition for generations.
Join Jack and his family as they outwit the evil giant, climb to new heights, and discover that magic beans really can change everything. With big laughs, audience participation, and just the right touch of chaos, this giant of a pantomime guarantees festive fun for all ages.
The production also features relaxed, audio-described and BSL-interpreted performances throughout the run, making it one of the most accessible pantos in the country.
