Kamala Sankaram and Kelley Rourke's retelling of The Jungle Book finally takes the stage with a new look at the story of Mowgli, a threatened human cub who seeks refuge from dangers of the jungle with a pack of wolves. Should the pack accept Mowgli, even if it means making an enemy of Shere Khan, the lawless tiger? A story of compassion, justice and forgiveness, this operatic version of The Jungle Book draws from Eastern and Western classical music traditions, featuring the Glimmerglass Youth Chorus and members of the Young Artists Program, with piano accompaniment.
