SYNOPSIS: Jack and his cow, Bella, have a show biz act and want to be famous. But Jack has to sell his cow, and that's where the traditional tale sort of takes over. As Jack takes his cow through the forest to market, he runs into the Beanman and other children in the forest, Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretal, Alice, Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Oz. They all play a part in helping Jack with the Giant and eventually making Jack and Bella singing stars.

Parents told me that children who saw the show sang the "Shuffle Off" song for weeks after the performance.
