Family theatre and rock star legend Kid Carpet is back! A lo-fi, hi-tech, big-beat bonkers panto stuffed with songs, silliness and surprise grannies – for ages 3-10 and their families


Kid Carpet doesn’t care for panto. The Noisy Animals absolutely love it. So guess what they’re doing? Yep. A panto. Now there’s a beanstalk in the middle of everything, and nobody’s quite sure what’s going on.

Featuring Bear, Gorilla, Badger and Hedgehog (with possible appearances from Hedgehog’s golden bum eggs), this is Jack & The Beanstalk like it’s been thrown in a blender with a drum machine and dodgy celebrity lookalikes. Part Air Guitar workshop, part magical mess, this lo-fi, hi-tech, big-beat bonkers show is stuffed with songs, silliness and surprise grannies.

Bring your kids. Bring yer nan. Bring snacks. It’s theatre, but it’s loud, proud and completely off its bean(stalk). Perfect for ages 3–10, families, party monsters, and fans of noisy nonsense. From the makers of Kid Carpet & The Noisy Animals, Noisy Holiday, Kid Carpet & The Noisy Neighbours, Noisy Nativity, Kid Carpet & The Noisy Garden Centre, Kid Carpet’s Super Mega Rockin’ Rock Show and more!

“If you’ve got kids, you must take them to see Kid Carpet. If you haven’t got kids, borrow some and go anyway.”
