Indefinite Articles, the creators of Claytime, bring to life the legendary tales of Jack and the
Giants with a twist...
Inspired by the landscape along the Icknield Way in East Anglia and based on one…or two
old English folk-tales. The Chalk Giants creates a world of magic and mystery with chalk
drawings, light, video and shadow puppetry. The narrative has been commissioned from
Guyanese-born poet John Agard. This original production will captivate and engage all
ages over five, with an elegant mix of storytelling and improvised narrative, animation
and images, which bring to life, the real and the imagined British landscape.

Suitable for everyone aged five and over

“This is a highly innovative production that is captivating in so many different ways – those
behind it have come up with all the necessary ingredients for a highly successful children’s
production and have created a show that is really very clever indeed.”
