A unique Tullamore production of Jack and the Beanstalk is coming up

THIS year's annual production from Tullamore Stage School is certainly unique.

In what must be a first, the Jack & the Beantin show will feature no less than five sets of twins.

There are three sets of twin sisters.

Those 10 performers form just part of a large cast of children who range in age from four to 16 and they will present a variety of scenes along with the story of Jack & the Beanstalk, with a twist, in panto style.

Under the direction of Regina McCarthy, the students are busy in rehearsal at the moment in advance of two shows on Saturday, April 20 next, 2pm and 7pm at the Esker Arts Centre.
