TEATRO PARAGUAS News:
Umbrella Children’s Theatre Productions presents Jill and Jack and the Beanstalk at Teatro Paraguas, adapted by Rebecca Morgan, directed by JoJo Sena de Tarnoff, with original music by Melange (Jeff and JoJo Tarnoff).
Ranging in age from 6 to 13 years old, child actors will be performing alongside adult instructors.
Jill and Jack and the Beanstalk is a play with original song, music and dance about the strength of community, friends and neighbors that’s behind every pair of heroes once they decide to be courageous and work together. How will Flora, Fauna, Dori, Dom, Max, Clara Belle, Jill and Jack magically get back the goose, harp, and gold that the sleeping giant stole and escape back down the beanstalk?

Tickets are $15 for adults, and $5 for kids. No one is turned away for lack of funds.
For reservations call 505.424.1601. Advance tickets may be purchased at teatroparaguasnm.org.
Umbrella Children’s Theatre was founded in 1988 as Southwest Children’s Theatre Productions by Rebecca Morgan and Celeste Allerton. For over 35 years, the two companies have equipped thousands of northern New Mexico children with skills that serve them as performers and human beings today and prepare them for challenges faced later in life. The 2022 season is tuition free due to a generous grant from the Los Alamos National Laboratory Foundation, which has allowed them to build back after canceling their seasons in 2020 and 2021.
This project is made possible in part by New Mexico Arts and the Dept. of Cultural Affairs, and the Santa Fe Community Foundation.
