Directed by Arwen Cameron and choreographed by Laurel Cameron, Disney's The Jungle Book KIDS stars Mowgli, a Man-Cub, raised in the heart of the jungle by a pack of wolves. Join him and his eclectic animal comrades on their unforgettable and often hilarious journey, as they attempt to safely deliver him to the Man Village before a dangerous tiger (Shere Khan) can sink his claws into the child. This paw-pounding musical features many exotic, enthralling, and uproarious creatures that will warm hearts and tickle funny bones, as they parade through the jungle with only the "Bare Necessities", while discovering the true meaning of friendship, comradery, and sincere benevolence
