Completing the line-up are Newcastle panto favourites Mick Potts as Pat the Cow and Wayne Smith as Fleshcreep, joined by musical theatre stars Rachel Stanley as the Queen and Oonagh Cox as Princess Jill.
Packed with laugh-out-loud comedy, staggering special effects, and larger-than-life fun, Jack and the Beanstalk is pantomime at its absolute best – the panto you’ve bean waiting for!
