Fee-fi-fo-fum… Prepare to embark on a gigantic adventure with Jack and the Beanstalk, The Arts Theatre Cambridge’s LARGER-THAN-LIFE pantomime for 2026!

Book ahead for next Christmas to avoid disappointment, as The Arts Theatre returns with another ‘uproariously funny’ (Velvet Magazine, Sleeping Beauty) pantomime for Cambridgeshire and beyond.

The Trott family are down on their luck and struggling to make ends meet. After selling the beloved family cow Daisy for a handful of magic beans, Jack’s world is turned upside down when he discovers an enormous beanstalk has sprouted outside his window! Can he climb through the clouds, defeat the fearsome giant and save the people of Cambridge?

Christmas in Cambridge just isn’t complete without The Arts Theatre pantomime, and with tickets starting from just £10 you can enjoy a fun-filled journey of music, comedy, magic and festive fun… Oh yes you will!
