Suitcase Story:
Jack and the Beanstalk

Touring from 18 February 2025

Which story will we find in the suitcase today? It’s Jack and the Beanstalk!


Once upon a time…. a storyteller arrived, bringing with them a suitcase full of wonder.

As they begin to unpack, a story comes to life, with music, puppets and lots of laughter and fun.

In today’s story Jack is forced to swap Daisy the cow for some magic beans. But how can a beanstalk come out of a suitcase? Let alone a giant?

Using playful storytelling, puppets and some magic props, Forest Forge’s Suitcase Stories are small flexible performances that are perfect for all ages and last just 30 minutes.

This production is available to tour throughout the year and is suitable for schools, libraries, community centres, village halls, fetes and events. If you are interested in booking our Suitcase Story please contact hello@forestforgetheatre.co.uk

Jack and the Beanstalk has been made possible thanks to New Forest District Council’s allocation of the Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF), from central government, with designated funds for improving the local cultural offer.
