On this day in 2006, Disney's Tarzan swung onto Broadway starring Josh Strickland and Jenn Gambatese!

TARZAN features music by Grammy and Oscar winning music pop icon Phil Collins and a book by Tony Award-winning playwright, David Henry Hwang.

Based on the smash-hit Disney animated film, TARZAN tells the story of an infant boy orphaned in a shipwreck on the shores of West Africa. The child is taken in and raised by a tribe of gorillas. He becomes a man, thriving in this primitive environment, until the arrival of a hunting expedition and his realization of the world beyond his jungle home.

TARZAN features high-flying excitement and hits like the Academy Award winning "You'll Be in My Heart" as well as "Son of Man" and "Two Worlds" making Tarzan an unforgettable theatrical experience.
