The Jungle Book - The Next Chapter
 

Join Baloo and Mowgli as they reunite years after Mowgli has left the jungle, in this heart warming and high-energy stage musical.

Through original songs and captivating storytelling, Mowgli’s journey growing up in the wild is brought to life—with help from Bagheera, Kaa, Shere Khan, the mischievous Monkeys, and the cunning Jackal. This interactive theatre experience invites you to sing, laugh, and be part of the jungle fun.

Covering an eclectic range of styles from contemporary ballad to funk and bongo beat, The Jungle Book songs include Bearstar, Jungle Law, Rumble in the Jungle, Baagheera’s Song and many more. This show is a bright, colourful and entertaining experience aimed for children 4-12 but is fun for the whole family!

    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.

    There’s a palpable playfulness to these performances, disciplined, drilled and delightful. There’s fire, bite and fun and lots of kissing.
