Just So - Concert Performance

Just So

Work:: Just So (S0773106758)


Production:: Concert Performance (T082287113)

Inspired by the stories of Rudyard Kipling. At the ‘Time of the Very Beginnings' the land is bustling with beasts, the sky is filled with birds and the ocean is teeming with fish. But there is one small problem: all the animals look the same! The wise 'Eldest Magician' sends them out into the world to find their individuality. Everything is just so until Pau Amma the Crab starts playing with the ocean, causing terrible floods that put the other animals in danger. The brave Elephant's Child embarks on a journey to challenge and overcome Pau Amma, but can she do it alone? This wondrous family musical blends five of Rudyard Kipling's Just So stories to tell a tale of courage, friendship and the power of an individual to make a difference. A spirited semi-staged concert that will take you back to nature this summer, join us for a song-filled journey through the jungle in the relaxed atmosphere of The Watermill gardens.
