REHEARSALS ARE in full swing for Renmore's 37th pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk, scripted by veteran panto dame Peter Kennedy, and directed by AIMS award-winning brothers Brian and Seán Power.
Queenie Bean's Sunshine Variety Theatre is threatened with closure, as the wicked landlady, Lady Feeona, tells Queenie there will be no pantomime this year! Queenie and her son Jack must find a way to save the theatre, meeting mischief and magic along the way.
