Jack and the Giant Opens Saturday at Music Mountain Theatre

Following a tale that has become known to generations, Jack sells his beloved cow for a handful of magic beans and when those beans are planted, look out! A beanstalk reaching through the clouds leads Jack to a magical land where a giant lives and adventure begins!

Starring as Jack is Skyler Carter, 12, of New Hope. His favorite MMT experience was playing Ralphie in A Christmas Story. Starring alongside Skyler as the Giant is his real-life brother, Cyrus Carter, 15, also of New Hope.
