This epic tale shows an extraordinary childhood lived among beasts in the deep heart of the jungles of India. Mowgli the man cub is saved and raised by a wolf pack from the man-eating tiger, Shere Khan. Thus begins his adventures encountering a jackal infected with madness, a gigantic python with hypnotic powers and a …vicious tribe of psychotic monkeys. The Jungle Book follows Mowgli’s rites of passage from childhood bliss to betrayal, heart ache and revenge. Combining animal physicality, fast paced action and exquisite language, this new adaptation brings to the stage the mystery and beauty of Rudyard Kipling’s beloved children’s classic.
