10/12/2023 07:40 AMThe musical tale of Jack and the Beanstalk will be presented by The Barter Players on Saturday, Oct. 14, at 11 a.m. at The Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center, also known as the Kate, at 300 Main Street, Old Saybrook.
The Barter Players will tell the story of Jack and the Beanstalk, where Jack is different from the other kids: every time it rains, he hears beautiful music up in the sky. Then, one day, the rain stops, and the ensuing drought forces Jack into town to sell his beloved cow, Bessie. Before he gets there, he meets a swindler who sends him instead on a madcap adventure up a magical beanstalk—an adventure that includes six quick-changing actors playing an entire town full of people, a goose that lays golden eggs, a singing golden harp, and one angry giant.
