Jack and the Beanstalk – 2022 Christmas Panto

Jack and the Beanstalk – 2022 Christmas Panto

Following South Hill Park’s most successful pantomime ever (Cinderella 2021), the magic and mayhem returns to the Wilde Theatre with a brand new version of the timeless tale Jack and the Beanstalk (opening Fri 25 Nov 2022).

Follow country-boy Jack on this hilarious, fee-fi-fo-fun-filled adventure as he sells the family cow for a handful of magic beans and climbs the towering beanstalk. But what awaits him, above the clouds, at the top? And will he find his fortune in sparkling treasure and egg-quisite gold?

So join us for a larger-than-life festive season filled with laughter, silly songs, colourful characters, slapstick comedy, and enchanted harps and hens – in this Great British pantomime favourite full of creative sparkle.

An award-worthy pantomime: Dick Whittington And His Cat (2018) was highly regarded by the Great British Pantomime Awards with a nomination for Best Script (Joyce Branagh). Our talented designer Victoria Spearing won the award for Best Staging/Set Design.
