The Jungle Book

The Jungle BookT917699717
One of literature's most enduring classics is brought vividly to the stage in this exciting adventure of Mowgli who is raised by caring wolves, befriended by Bagheera the panther and Baloo the bear, and threatened by Shere Khan, the sinister tiger. In this action packed play, filled with excitement and humour, The Jungle Book highlights the struggle of good versus evil, the worth of friendship and the importance of loyalty and other values required for surviving the 'law of the jungle'.
Book by Rudyard Kipling
