Classic Nick Wed. – Clever Jack


My apologies I had two very long meetings yesterday so I didn't have a chance to post this.


Classic Nick Wed. – Clever Jack
March 13, 2013
This 1985 classic musical version of "Jack And The Beanstalk" is hosted by Lucie Arnaz and stars the critically acclaimed First All Children's Theater which consists of more than 30 singing and dancing gifted young performers including a very young Ben Stiller (yes movie star Ben Stiller – that’s him in the red cloak on the left) as The Giant.
The First All Children’s Theater was the first children’s theater to ever receive a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. As Lucie Arnaz says, the First All Children’s Theater is “exciting” and “exhilarating” and “a very special place.” TV critic Kay Garbella of the New York Daily News said of Clever Jack, “It’s a romp. Youngsters will love it.”

  1. I've been trying to find a copy of this, and can't find it anywhere! I loved (loved!) this video as a child (my Mom prob. taped it off the t.v). Any ideas where I could find it???

  3. You’re welcome. It’s rare but it does show up from time to time so you just have to stay on it. Have you ever heard of iOffer? It’s similar to eBay and I’ve found lots of old TV shows on there. Hey when you find it please post back here and let me know, I love to celebrate with fellow fans when they find that one show they’ve been looking for.
