He's Behind You presents JACK AND THE BEANSTALK: WHAT A WHOPPER! Written by Jon Bradfield & Martin Hooper with songs by Jon Bradfield Directed by Andrew Beckett Laugh your stockings off to this profoundly silly and staggeringly naughty new adults-only pantomime, from the team behind Sleeping Beauty Takes A Prick (***** "the best adult pantomime in London" - Theatre Weekly). Jack Trott is very poor, very gay and very horny, living with his mum on a dilapidated dairy farm ten miles from the nearest Grindr user. When he sells their beloved cow for a handful of magic beans, his mum throws them in the compost - and they wake up to the biggest, thickest stalk they've ever seen. Is there a giant at the top? And if so... is he all in proportion?This magical musical adventure is everything a panto should be - just NOT for all the family! Following his unforgettable performance as Queen Gertrude, the outrageous Matthew Baldwin ("wonderful as ever" - Time Out) returns to play Dame Trott. Responses to last year’s panto from the same team: ***** “The hit of the festive season” – The Stage **** “Terrifically entertaining” – Gay Times ***** “I don’t think I have laughed so hard in a theatre ever” – Box Office Radio **** “A filthy festive delight. Outstanding” – All That Dazzles ***** “The pantomime we never knew we needed. A must-see” The Live Review
