Jack and the Beanstalk review – 'moooosical' caper gives the cow's eye view

I'm so down for this reimagining of Jack and the Beanstalk! 🤠 I loved how they made Caroline the main cow, Suzie McAdam was amazing as her too 😊, but at the same time, it felt like some parts got lost in translation. I mean, who needs exposition to teach lessons when you've got a talented cast and crew on board? 💫 The music was fire, though! 🎵 And Brian Cox as the giant was pure comedy gold 🤣. Maybe they should just stick to what made the original story great in the first place, but I'm gonna give this show some props for trying something new 💪
 
idk what's wrong w/ them tryin 2 reboot a classic like jack & the beanstalk...i mean, who needs a petting zoo cow starin in an escape plan lolol. but seriously, caroline & the beanstalk just feels like a cash grab to me 🤑. they took away all the magic & wonder from the original story & replaced it w/ "teaching lessons" through exposition...like, no thanks. and dont even get me started on the songs 🎶. i loved watchin susie mcadam's power ballad udderly alone tho 💖. still, i'm not sure if its worth seein' this show until dec 30th 🤔
