Barack And The Beanstalk

Barack and the Beanstalk, a new musical by David Shirreff and Russell Sarre, directed by Ross Livingstone, is showing at the OSO Arts Centre, Barnes from September 15th to 19th 2014.

Oblivious of the well-known fairy tale, young Barack sells the family cow for a handful of beans and gets into deep water. Who is the Giant? What gets laid by his precious hen? This is a musical romp that goes all the way to America’s near-bankruptcy, accompanied by a mad hatter’s Tea Party of assorted bankers, lawyers and politicians. Great tunes and nifty words.
