Each child will be screened for kindergarten readiness, including speech.  This will allow school personnel to be aware of any need that will require special services. The screening process will take approximately thirty (30) minutes.

The Jungle Book combines costumed human performers and innovative puppetry. The show follows the story of the man-child, Mowgli, Baloo the bear and Bagheera the panther, as they are threatened by wily snake Kha, and the fierce Bengal tiger, Shere Kahn. Comedic relief is provided by Colonel Hathi and his herd of elephants, King Louie and his hep-cat monkeys and, of course, the boisterous Baloo, with his unforgettable bouncing rendition of “Bare Necessities”.

Other musical highlights include “I Want to be Like You”, “Trust in Me”, and “That’s What Friends are For”. Tickets are $5.00 for adults and $3.00 for students and will be available at the door.

Doors open at 6:45pm.
