Hackney Empire have announced full casting for Jack and the Beanstalk this  Christmas, running from 20 November 2021-2 January 2022.

Victoria Anderson,  Harry Robinson, Christina Shand, Beth Sindy, Jacob Thomas and Cameron Webb make up the ensemble for the 2021 pantomime. They join the previously announced Kat B as Simple Simon, Zoë Curlett as Fenella  Fleshcreep, Julie Jupp as Fairy Fusia, Ellie Ruiz Rodriguez as Jill Higginbottom, Rochelle  Sherona as Jack Trot, Tony Whittle as Councillor Higginbottom, and Clive Rowe as Dame Daisy Trott.

The show will be choreographed by Ruthie Stephens and, as well as making their 14th pantomime appearance, Olivier-Award winner Clive Rowe and Hackney panto veteran Tony Whittle will co-direct this year's production.

So, as only Hackney Empire can, Jack and the Beanstalk will get the festive season  underway once more, with all the fun, magic, mischievous mayhem and razzle dazzle that  Hackney audiences love and sadly missed last Christmas.  

This tall-tale is packed full of slapstick comedy, laugh-out-loud gags, stunning costumes,  dazzling song and dance numbers and plenty of chances to cheer, boo and hiss. Hackney Empire’s pantomime has become one of the city’s most anticipated annual highlights  bringing West End value at East End prices to attract an ever growing local, national and global fanbase.
