Jack and the Beanstalk at the Lyric Hammersmith
Join loveable hero Jack this Christmas as he embarks on a mission of gigantic proportions.
This Christmas, the beloved Lyric Hammersmith Theatre pantomime returns with a giant new adventure: Jack and the Beanstalk. Following last year’s smash-hit Aladdin, the acclaimed creative duo of writer Sonia Jalaly and director Nicholai La Barrie reunite to reimagine the much-loved tale for West London audiences and beyond.
Playing from 15 November 2025 - 4 January 2026, this high-energy panto continues the Lyric’s long tradition of delivering some of London’s finest festive family entertainment. So come and join the loveable hero Jack as he embarks on a mission of gigantic proportions, way into the clouds, to defeat his newfound nemesis and save the people of Hammersmith. Accompanied by a show-stopping medley of musical bangers, jaw-dropping magic and whip-smart comedy: all the festive fun you know and love… oh yes they will!
It’s Jack and Jill’s first day at Fleshcreep Academy, the strictest school in Hammersmith, and there’s trouble brewing. Not only is their mum the chaotic new dinner lady but the headteacher has pupils on a tight leash: just three strikes and it’s off to the giant, whatever that means. This place could do with some magic – but where is the Fairy Godfather hiding?
Get ready for the climb of the lifetime as Jack reaches new heights to bring joy back to West London!
The cast includes EastEnders and West End star John Partridge as the formidable Fleshcreep and Joey James as loveable Jack.
