IT’S the giant panto Northwich people have ‘bean’ waiting for.

James ‘Arg’ Argent from TOWIE, Kim Woodburn from ‘How Clean is Your House’ and Coronation Street and Waterloo Road actress Shannon Flynn are among the cast of Jack and the Beanstalk.

The panto runs from December 10 to January 2 at Northwich Memorial Court, and is presented by Anton Benson Productions.

Skid Row is in peril, the townsfolk are knee deep in debt, Fleshcreep is creating havoc and there’s a big ugly giant living in the clouds above the town.

When Princess Jill gets kidnapped, Jack decides he will rise to the challenge - he’s off to rescue her and win the heart of his true love.

Northwich regulars Ryan Greaves, Steve Moorewood and Keeley Fitzgerald return in this all-new pantomime production of Jack and the Beanstalk, which boasts a laugh-out-loud script full of song and dance, hilarious one-liners and legendary slapstick routines.

Rehearals for the panto took place at Mid Cheshire College, and for tickets for the show ring the box office on 01606 261100.
