Hey everyone on The Jungle Book tech crew!
We will not be working on the set this Saturday. There are going to be some changes that need to be worked out before we can proceed further with the construction. So, enjoy your weekend break and we'll see everyone next week on the 22nd to continue building our jungle. We'll see everyone then! --Ms Susan

We usually have between 400 and 500 tickets sold for our production and sometimes even more!

The set of The Real Princess and the Pea is barely cleared off the stage and we are already gearing up for our next undertaking. This time we will be visiting with a pack of wolves, a troop of monkeys, a tiger and many other inhabitants of the jungles of India. Join us for Mowgli's adventures as related by Rudyard Kipling in his famous tale, "The Jungle Book." This version also includes a peek into the life of the story's author and his experiences at boarding school. Auditions will be January 7th and 8th from 5 to 7pm at the Arts and Recreation Building in Ayden and the performances will be March 13th and 14th. It's going to be a great adventure!!
Such a small thing a pea is, considering how much control it has over the ruling of a kingdom. Come see who the prince chooses and does that small, round green vegetable agree?
