Family Magic Awaits This Autumn at Altrincham Garrick Playhouse with The Wizard of Oz and Jack and the Beanstalk Pantomime
Altrincham Garrick Playhouse invites families across Greater Manchester to experience the magic of live theatre this autumn with two spectacular shows: the classic musical The Wizard of Oz and the return of our beloved Pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk, including a special relaxed performance designed for everyone to enjoy.
Step Into the World of Oz This October Half Term
From October 28th to November 3rd, 2024, follow Dorothy, Toto, and their enchanting friends down the yellow brick road in a heartwarming stage production of The Wizard of Oz. Based on the timeless 1939 MGM film, this dazzling musical brings to life the iconic story of Dorothy Gale, a young girl whisked away from her Kansas home by a powerful tornado to the fantastical land of Oz.
Audiences will join Dorothy on her quest to find her way home, with unforgettable encounters along the way—including the lovable Scarecrow, Tin Woodsman, and Cowardly Lion, as well as the villainous Wicked Witch of the West. The production features all the beloved songs that have captivated generations: "We’re Off to See the Wizard," "Ding! Dong! The Witch is Dead," and the timeless "Somewhere Over the Rainbow."
This magical adventure, suitable for all ages, is the perfect way for families to spend the October Half Term together.

Jack and the Beanstalk Pantomime Returns This December – Featuring a Relaxed Performance!
As the festive season approaches, Altrincham Garrick Playhouse is thrilled to bring back its annual Pantomime with the GIANT adventure of Jack and the Beanstalk! Running from 6th December 2024 through to 5th January 2025, this fun-filled production promises laughs, music, dance, dazzling costumes, and audience participation for the whole family to enjoy.
Follow young Jack, his hilarious brother Silly Simon, and their mother Dame Trott as they try to save the day when their cow Daisy is sold for a bag of seemingly worthless beans. With a villainous henchman, a kidnapped princess, and a terrifying giant named Blunderbore, this traditional Pantomime will keep audiences entertained from start to finish. Will Jack’s magic beans hold the secret to saving the day?
Don’t Miss Our Special Relaxed Performance
Altrincham Garrick Playhouse is committed to making live theatre accessible to all. That’s why we’re offering a special Relaxed Performance of Jack and the Beanstalk on Saturday, 14th December at 1:30 pm.
What is a Relaxed Performance?
For those with learning or sensory disabilities—including individuals on the autism spectrum—attending traditional theatre performances can sometimes be overwhelming. Our Relaxed Performance will provide the same Pantomime fun, but in a more inclusive and accommodating environment.
What to Expect:
• Audience members can move freely in and out of the auditorium.
• No restrictions on vocal or physical expression—feel free to react as you wish!
• Reduced sound and lighting levels, with no sudden loud noises or pyrotechnics.
• Early access to the theatre to help you settle in comfortably.
This special performance is designed to create a welcoming, safe space where everyone can enjoy the magic of live theatre without the usual sensory challenges.
Jack and the Beanstalk Pantomime Details:
• Relaxed Performance: Saturday, 14th December 2024, 1:30 pm
• Venue: Altrincham Garrick Playhouse, Barrington Road, WA14 1HZ
• Tickets: Available at www.altrinchamgarrick.co.uk or by calling the box office at 0161 928 1677
