Black Box Performing Arts Center Presents ‘SPROUTED!’

(Courtesy of Black Box Studios) “SPROUTED!” is a new musical comedy adaptation of “Jack & the Beanstalk,” teaching responsibility and acceptance, for audiences of all ages. It is the second professional musical for kids in BBPAC’s 2018 season of professional theater.

In “SPROUTED!,” Jack and his mother live in the farmlands of Bovina, New York. When Jack’s most loyal friend, Mo (who just so happens to be the most adorable agender dairy cow), can no longer produce any milk, Jack’s mother demands that he venture into New York City to put Mo up for sale. In the midst of trying to earn some money to bring back to his mother, Jack loses Mo in the streets of Times Square. There he acquires a bean he is convinced contains magic. Jack is challenged to make the right choices in difficult situations throughout his wild adventures, during which he learns lessons about responsibility and acceptance. “SPROUTED!” will play through Thursday, August 23, with an activity workshop for kids after select performances.

Tickets are $15 for kids and seniors, and $20 for adults. Tickets are available at www.blackboxpac.com/sprouted. Group rates for 10 or more are available by calling (201) 357-2221.
