YANKL & THE BEANSTALK

Yankl is a hapless pickle worker who lives with his mum on the Brick Lane. One day he swaps his pickles for a sack of beans, climbs a beanstalk and ends up in… Mayfair?!

YANKL & THE BEANSTALK is a queer, Jewish, socialist twist on the panto tradition. Expect Yiddish takes on your favourite pop songs (Bohemian Rhapsody, anyone?) and all the panto tropes you could hope for.

Audience participation is more than encouraged, and prepare to laugh. A lot.

We hope you like pickles.
