What's in YOUR Gullet?
A ShortBurst Theatre New Works presentation
Sometimes, traversing the past leads you to transforming the present.
The members of Actors' Workshop at Santa Monica Playhouse found themselves embracing the traditional forms of myth and parable in order to explore the contemporary world. Jack and the Great Bean Stock Crash of 2018 takes its audience on a magical myth-tery tour, enfolding them in a complex and engaging piece of theatre whose deceptively simply framework supports a scathing attack on excessive consumption and consumerism, self-gratification, addiction, corporate greed, global control'as they roller coaster up and down the beanstalk of life.
