In 2025 celebrate with us, during our 90th anniversary year
Leeds Children's Theatre aims to bring two more popular plays to the Carriageworks Theatre during our anniversary year, 2025, and we are delighted to announce that our March production will be The Jungle Book (directed by J Walker).
Join Mowgli, the boy raised by wolves, as he adventures through the jungle encountering a colourful cast of characters including the wise panther Bagheera, the fun-loving bear Baloo, and the fearsome tiger Shere Khan. Interspersed with the Mowgli tale is the intriguing story of a young Rudyard Kipling, who is sent from his home in Bombay to a British boarding school, where he encounters his own "jungle". The story unfolds using his own experience of feeling lost in unfamiliar surroundings, and the people he meets - good and bad - inspire many of his famous animal characters.
With its rich storytelling, excitement, humour and a vibrant ensemble of jungle inhabitants, ‘The Jungle Book’ is a timeless story, that explores themes of courage, friendship, and the importance of finding one’s place in the world. Embark on a wild journey with Mowgli as he discovers the true meaning of family and belonging in this enchanting adaptation.
