Extraordinary, larger-than-life-size puppetry and vibrant costuming will bring The Jungle Book to life. Based on the Rudyard Kipling short stories, and the many famed The Jungle Book movies, the colorful ballet was created by award-winning choreographer Toni Pimble, artistic director of Eugene Ballet. Audiences of all ages will delight in the spirited adventures of Mowgli, Baloo the Bear, Shere Khan the tiger and Kaa the snake.

"We can't imagine a more exciting way to introduce the community to our 2021-2022 season and company," said Cheryl Collins, executive director of Orlando Ballet. Dancers from across the country auditioned for an opportunity to join the company. Making their debut with Orlando Ballet this season are dancers John Abenanty, Darion Flores, Trevor Stalcup, McKenzie Thomas and Brian Warkentien (apprentice).
