I love Pantos, they really remind me of Christmas as a child. The booing the baddie, and the goodie throwing sweets into the audience, after shouting, \u201cHe\u2019s behind you.\u201d So you can imagine how excited I am to tell you that I am being granted special access to The Roses Theatre\u2019s production of Jack and the Beanstalk. Not only does this mean that I’m going to access areas, and ask questions, that I never have before, but it means I get to leak bits of information to you my readers AND look out for an exclusive giveaway!<\/p>\n

The Roses Theatre Grow your own bean competition<\/h2>\n

They already have started to build up the magic and excitement with a Grow your own bean competition<\/b> (it\u2019s not too late to enter either!). The winner gets a family ticket to see Jack and the Beanstalk LIVE at The Roses Theatre, meet the cast and have a backstage tour! They can also have their photo taken with their favourite character!<\/p>\n

Simply pop on down to The Roses Theatre and pick up your Activity pack and grow your own bean essentials. This is because the story is Jack and the Beanstalk (you know the one where Jack swaps his cow for some magic beans, and it grows all the way to the sky \u2013 wouldn\u2019t that be something!).<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The activity pack has some helpful tips on how to grow the bean plant and some fun games and puzzles (maze and wordsearch) whilst the wait is on for the bean to grow. There\u2019s even a bean diary \u2013 so you can track your bean\u2019s growth, colour, size and appearance, plus an area to draw your bean.<\/p>\n

The pack also contains a certificate for growing your bean. Then on Saturday 23rd<\/sup> November 2013 between 10-12 pop down to The Roses Theatre for the exciting measuring day \u2013 the winner will be the one who has grown the tallest bean.<\/p>\n

The Roses Theatre<\/strong>\u00a0Knit the Beanstalk Challenge<\/b><\/h2>\n

But that\u2019s not all! If you are not feeling very green fingered why not get involved with the Knit our Beanstalk Challenge<\/b>. The pantomime is the highlight of the year and is very important to Tewkesbury, so what better way to get into the festive community spirit than by getting involved in the production of the Beanstalk. The aim is to make the Beanstalk as big as possible, so that every nook and cranny of The Roses Theatre is wind and twined with it.<\/p>\n

People of any age can get involved and contribute and if you have never knitted before don\u2019t worry you can learn the basics at the launch event on Tuesday 29th<\/sup> October 10am-12pm. Knit, cable, twist, pearl, garter stitch \u2013 whatever takes your fancy! You don\u2019t have to make the launch \u2013 knit in your own time, whenever and wherever (maybe waiting at the doctors!). You don\u2019t even have to live locally \u2013 you can send your beanstalk pieces through the post. Simply knit a green scarf 15cm wide and as long as you can. If you are an experienced knitter you could make some intricate leaves of any size and shape and they will be stitched onto the beanstalk.<\/p>\n

It would be great if you are part of a knitting circle of craft group if you could pull together and help with this please<\/p>\n

There\u2019s also going to be drop in stations around Tewkesbury town and you can add your stitches onto somebody else\u2019s.<\/p>\n

If you really feel that you cannot knit then you can still help by donating any shade or ply of green wool and\/or knitting needles of any diameter. Or simply help spread the word out there.<\/p>\n
