‘The Jungle Book’ puppet production swings into Phuket
PHUKET: In the next installment of quality island entertainment, Events International and the Phuket Gazette are proud to present the Jungle Book Puppet Theater.
Suitable for children of all ages, the sparkling new puppet theater adaptation of Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book will swing into British International School Phuket (BISP), HeadStart International School and Kajonkietsuksa International School next month.
This colorful retelling will include everyone’s favorite characters in an interactive song and dance spectacular, which is sure to evoke vivid recollections of Kipling’s amazing jungle.
The classic story follows the adventures of Mowgli, a young boy who is raised in the jungle by a family of wolves.
However, not all the animals are concerned about Mowgli’s well-being. Shere Khan, the arrogant tiger, believes that tigers should be the “kings of the jungle” and feels threatened by the young boy-cub Mowgli. Without the help of Baloo the bear and Bagheera the panther, who agree to take the boy-cub to the “man village” for safety, Mowgli would no doubt fall into Shere Khan’s deadly paws.
Nonetheless, the jungle holds dangers and surprises for them all – and Mowgli’s extraordinary adventures have just begun! The rascally orangutan Louis, slippery snake Ka and the cheeky monkeys all add to the mayhem and mischief as Mowgli makes his way to the man village.
On November 1, there will be three showings at BISP and two at HeadStart International School. November 2 will see two showings at Kajonkietsuksa International School, and then four more at the school on November 8 and 9.
Tickets for all shows are 500 baht.
