Meet the cast of Jack and the Beanstalk!

We're thrilled to announce the cast of Jack and the Beanstalk, our 2025 pantomime! Bringing modern magic to the traditional family spectacular, the show runs from 23 November 2025 - 4 January 2026.

Leading the cast as Dame Trott will be Victoria Scone, who rose to fame as the first AFAB drag queen to be a contestant on RuPaul’s Drag Race UK and was later a finalist on Drag Race: Canada vs The World. On stage, Victoria has recently played Pluto in The Frogs (Southwark Playhouse), as well as appearing in several Tuck Shop adult pantomimes in the West End.

Playing leading man Jack is Elliott Baker-Costello, who recently starred as Pepper in the international tour of Mamma Mia!, as well as covering Rolf in the Chichester production of The Sound of Music. He is joined by Priscille Grace as Jill – an experienced panto leading lady, she played the titular role in the Oxford Playhouse’s 2024 Cinderella pantomime. Grace’s credits also include Reputation at The Other Palace, Legends: The Divas Tour at the Adelphi, and Much Ado About Nothing at the Watermill. 

Mia Ito Smith plays Fairy Fullobeans, and has recently performed in the South-East Asian Premiere of Dear Evan Hansen as Alana Beck (Victoria Theatre, Singapore). Pat the Cow will be played by Pavanveer Sagoo, whose credits include Macbeth (Shakespeare North Playhouse, The Dukes Theatre, Hope Mill Theatre & Lawrence Batley Theatre, 2025) and Sleeping Beauty (Storyhouse, 2024). Completing the cast is Joseph Lukehurst as villain Nightshade, who returns to King’s Head Theatre’s pantomime having played Prince Charming in 2024’s Cinderella. 

Victoria Scone said: “I’m udderly ECSTATIC to be donning my Dame drapery as ‘Trott’ at the King’s Head this Christmas! To be part of such an iconic queer venue’s panto is a real treat. It’s going to be camp, chaotic, and it’s just my cup of tea.”
