The Jungle Book

A new, 70-minute family-friendly take on Rudyard Kipling’s classic tale of anthropomorphic goings-on in the deep jungle, with the bonus of being staged at Kew – as close to a real jungle as you can get in London. Adapted by Andrew S Walsh with songs – not the ones from the Dinsey film – by Guy Holden, it naturally follows the adventures of ‘man cub’ Mowgli as he hangs out with the nice animals while trying to avoid being eaten by the nasty ones. Performed by Sixteenfeet Productions, it’s aimed at ages five-plus.
