Just So

by Stiles and Drewe

The creators of Honk! and the new music for Mary Poppins (to be seen in Melbourne a little later this year) have done it again!

Based on the immortal stories of Rudyard Kipling, Stiles and Drewe's irresistible, high-energy musical takes you on a fantastic journey along the banks of Africa's great, grey-green greasy Limpopo River to meet an amazing collection of strange and wonderful creatures. Set at the beginning of time, it introduces the Eldest Magician who has created a world of birds and beasts and fish.

Everything is just so, until Pau Amma the Crab begins playing with the ocean, causing a flood that threatens the other animals. To stop the crab, the Elephant’s Child goes on a quest to the Limpopo River and discovers many lessons. For example, how the leopard got his spots, how the rhinoceros got his skin - and how curiosity and a hungry crocodile can turn an elephant’s small nose into a very large trunk!

Set to an eclectic, upbeat score, Kipling's "Just So Stories" are woven with wit and imagination into a song-filled journey through the jungle. You will be inspired by its underlying message.

A lavish musical treat for the whole family. Don’t miss it!
