View all →About This Event
Jack and the Beanstalk is a community production at Summerhall in Edinburgh on 11 December 2026. Set in a village suffering from drought, it follows naive Jack as he balances family duties with his hopes for a better life. The cast includes Lottie Henshall as Jack alongside returning members from the 2025 production.
The village is running on rations, and everyone is hangry, fed up and full ey’ the drouth! But the taxes still need to be paid, and Baroness Bella Von Grabbit will make sure she gets what is owed. Our loveable, nice but naive Jack has forever longed to find a bonnie bird who loves him for him, but family comes first… Does he let his auld Ma, Maggie McTrout, whittle away to the size of a sprout, or does he pull his socks up, stop greetin’ and climb his way tae something bigger? With a feisty Ma, a loyal coo, a greedy Baroness, and a beanstalk that’s anything but ordinary, will Jack strike it rich – or land himself in a right pickle? Either way, it’s going to be a belter of a journey! Coronation Street’s Lottie Henshall is leading the cast in the role of Jack, with returning 2025 cast members Stephen Graham-Martin, Brett Herriot, Lucy Philip and Rebekah Clark.
