Theatre Arts Center's The Jungle Book Kids
The jungle is jumpin’ with jazz in Disney's The Jungle
Book Kids. Specially adapted from the classic film, this musical includes all
your favorite Disney tunes, like “The Bare Necessities,” and “I Wan’na Be Like
You.” On the run from Shere Khan, a ferocious tiger who has
banished him from the jungle, a human boy named Mowgli is aided by an agile
panther named Bagheera. Along the way, the two meet a sinister snake named Kaa,
a herd of elephants, and a giant bear named Baloo, who teaches them the
swingin’ musical rhythms of the jungle. After surviving a dangerous encounter
with a band of monkeys led by King Louie, Mowgli and Bagheera are forced to run
for their lives. Shere Khan returns, leading our protagonists to rally their
follow jungle creatures into battle and restore peace to the jungle. For tickets, visit brtstage.org or call 215-785-0100.
