'Giant' is the name of a play by Footsbarn Theatre Company. First performed in 1971, and written by Dave Johnston, it is a retelling of the old Cornish giant legends, which would originally have been told by travelling story or 'droll' tellers.

The original scripts have been lost since the late 70's and all is left is an audio recording in which some sections are missing or inaudible.

This is reflected in the remaining text.
