Adaptation of The Jungle Book in May
Set in the vibrant tropical jungle of India and adapted from the original Rudyard Kipling story, this production comes to the White Rock Theatre on Tuesday, May 27 and dramatises the journey to maturity of Mowgli the man cub.
With loving care from his adopted wolf family and much advice from Bagheera the panther and Baloo the bear, Mowgli stands firm against the manipulation of Shere Khan the tiger.
During the light-hearted half-hour rehearsal, some children are chosen and rehearsed into their parts while the rest of the audience is taught the choruses of four songs. During the interval the actors and children are costumed and the show, lasting one hour, runs seamlessly with everyone taking part.
