As the Torch Theatre prepares for its festive pantomime of Jack and the Beanstalk this December, they need your help.
Somewhere in Cloudland, deep in the heart of the Giant’s castle is a very special room filled with beautiful golden objects - priceless, covered in the most spectacular patterns, and decorated with jewels. These treasures don’t belong to the Giant; they belong to everyone here on earth, and Jack wants them returned!
But what on earth are these objects, what shape are they, what are they made of? Your young people are needed to think about things that are precious to them and design a spectacular special object for Jack to rescue.
Senior Manager for Youth and Community Tim Howe said: “We were so delighted by last year’s wonderful ball gown design for Beauty and the Beast that we thought we’d set another challenge! We want to see all the ideas you have for a special object in the giant’s room – could it be a golden toilet brush? A diamond covered X-Box? It’s up to you to imagine.
“The design pictures could be in any format. They could be made of a collage of images and textures, cutouts from magazines, strips of material, created on the computer or they could be hand drawn – let the young people’s imaginations run wild.”
A winner will be chosen from each age category, Under 5s, 5 – 10 and 11 – 18, and an overall winner will see their design being made into an actual object in the pantomime. All the designs will be displayed in the Torch Theatre’s Joanna Field Gallery during December.
Deadline for entries is Friday, October 4.
All images should be on an A4 piece of paper and include the following information on the back: the name of the designer, school / college they attend, a brief description of what their object is, and contact details for someone over 18.
Send entries to: The Giant’s Treasure Room, Torch Theatre, St Peter's Rd, Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire, SA73 2BU or take them to the Torch Theatre Box Office.
