Jungle Book Update

Preparations for the Jungle Book are almost complete.

Working with Stuart Paterson’s adaptation of one of Kipling’s most endearing works the younger members of the cast have come to appreciate the real story. They came expecting Disney and have found a powerful story of love, betrayal, loyalty, revenge and courage. It has all the ingredients of a true adventure and will appeal to adults and children alike. Ali and Liz say that it has sent them back to re-discover the original stories which, if each were included, would fill several plays. However, Paterson has captured the essence of the original. Be warned – it’s definitely not Disney!

Performances are Friday 28th December to Saturday 5th January. Matinees will be on 29th and 30th December and 1st and 5th January. No performances on 31st December or evening performance 1st January.

Evening performances are at 7.45pm; matinees at 2.00pm.
