Family theatre and rock star legend Kid Carpet is back with a totally brand new show! A lo-fi, hi-tech, big-beat bonkers panto stuffed with songs, silliness and surprises – for all ages and families.

Kid Carpet doesn’t care for panto. The Noisy Animals absolutely love it. So guess what they’re doing? Yep. A panto. Now there’s a beanstalk in the middle of everything, and nobody’s quite sure what’s going on.

Featuring Bear, Gorilla, Badger and Hedgehog (with possible appearances from Hedgehog’s golden eggs), this is Jack & The Beanstalk like it’s been thrown in a blender with a drum machine and dodgy celebrity lookalikes. Part Air Guitar workshop, part magical mess, this lo-fi, hi-tech, big-beat bonkers show is stuffed with songs, silliness and surprises.

Bring your kids. Bring yer nan. Bring snacks. It’s theatre, but it’s loud, proud and completely off its bean(stalk). Perfect for ages children, families, party monsters, and fans of noisy nonsense.

From the makers of Kid Carpet & The Noisy Animals, Noisy Holiday, Noisy Neighbours, Noisy Nativity, Kid Carpet & The Noisy Garden Centre, Super Mega Rockin’ Rock Show and more!
