Akram Khan Company: Jungle Book reimagined

The much-loved and classic book is reimagined by one of the most innovative dance companies in the world, Akram Khan Company (UK).

In their latest thought-provoking production, you’ll be transported to a near future world. A family is torn apart as they escape their homeland ravaged by climate change. Join famous characters Mowgli, Baloo, and Kaa as they explore a strange new city jungle. State-of-the-art animation, narrated voiceover and a powerful soundtrack bring the jungle and city to life.

‘Jungle Book reimagined’ is a beautifully compelling and vital piece of storytelling about our need to belong, to bond with others, and respect our natural world.

Exclusive to Wellington for a limited season as part of the Aotearoa New Zealand Festival of the Arts, this is your chance to witness the brilliance of one of the world’s greatest contemporary choreographers.
