Show Information


Children's Theatre Company

Twin Cities Pioneer Press- Recommended

"...Banks directs the show as well, and has chosen a childlike, innocent-eyed Mowgli in Eric Sharp -- surrounded by dangerously good actors who play his animal friends and foes. The goofy and funny factors have been ratcheted up and the set itself is like a child's fantasy playground -- with lots of boulders, hanging ropes and rigging to climb. It looks as if you're in for a good time even before the show begins."

How Was The Show- Highly Recommended

"...The Children’s Theater Company’s intimate Cargill Stage serves as an ideal space to tell the story of The Jungle Book. The story, based on the book by Rudyard Kipling, about a boy who comes to be raised by wolves and befriend many beasts of the wild jungle in his journey to find meaning and understand his identity, is a pure adventure that thrives mainly on the dangers and joys of its setting. Although not without its flaws, this new play, adapted and energetically directed by Greg Banks, created a fun, exciting, and immersive experience, for audience members young and old."
