Following their critically-acclaimed 2017 summer tour of The Wind in the Willows, Immersion Theatre Company are thrilled to announce that they will be bringing their trademark energy to their wildest show yet, a brand new musical adaptation of the family classic, The Jungle Book!

The show will be embarking on a 36-venue nationwide tour Spring 2018. For more information, visit immersiontheatre.co.uk.

Written and directed by Immersion Theatre's artistic director, James Tobias, and composed by Robert Gathercole, The Jungle Book sees the duo reunited following their successful partnership on Immersion's previous adaptations of The Wizard of Oz, Alice in Wonderland, and The Wind in the Willows.

Filled with music, audience interaction, and the chance to meet the characters after the show, audiences are invited to join Mowgli and his friends, Baloo the bear and Bagheera the panther, on a madcap jungle adventure as they attempt to outwit a slithering snake, some cheeky monkeys, and the fierce tiger, Shere Khan!

Funny, exciting and wildly entertaining, this larger-than-life musical will have you howling with laughter; The perfect treat for the whole family!

Full casting and creative to be announced.
