FREDERIC - Local children teamed up with two professional actors this past weekend to present Prairie Fire Children’s Theatre’s original musical version of the classic tale, “Jack and the Beanstalk." Performances were held Friday and Saturday, March 16 and 17, at Birch Street Elementary in Frederic. Audiences followed Jack’s adventure up and down the beanstalk through the worlds of Orchestrania, where all the people sang, Featherville, whose inhabitants were most “fowl,” and Giantlan, where he met the mischievous trolls (and of course, “the Big Guy”).
