Join us for a fun-packed adventure for this year’s Christmas pantomime JACK AND THE BEANSTALK, written and directed by Malcolm Galea, at MFCC Ta’ Qali.

All his life young Jack has only ever had one dream - to become a famous knight. Unfortunately, he comes from a dirt-poor family that can’t even afford to keep up with the ever-increasing rent. One day, his village is attacked by giants who take away the girl he loves - presumably to eat her. Jack needs to pluck up the courage and climb that beanstalk to make the transition from zero to hero, from nobody to somebody, from loser to legend. 

Featuring Michael Mangion as the hilarious Dame, Matthew Ben Attard, Katherine Brown, Joe Depasquale, Christina Despott, Rachel Tedesco Triccas, Audrey Scerri & Sean Briffa. With Maestro Paul Abela once more waving his musical baton, Roger Tirazona will polish up the chorus to terpsichorean perfection and choreographer Francesco Nicodeme will make sure that everything looks better by leaps and bounds. Ray Farrugia will be designing our stunning sets, whilst Izzy Warrington will be creating our amazing costumes.
