Raised by wolves and shaped by the dangers of the jungle, a young man named Mowgli must find his place in the world—and ultimately decide where he belongs. Inspired by Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book, this ballet features virtuosic choreography by Artistic Director Mark Roxey, set against vivid scenery that brings the wild jungle to life. The evocative score by Czech composer Milan Svoboda blends traditional orchestral music with bold, anthemic moments influenced by European pop and jazz, reflecting his work as a pianist, bandleader, and—playfully—part-time wolf. Mowgli is a family-friendly performance for audiences of all ages. The story encourages viewers to face their fears, embrace change, and move forward. Mark Roxey especially cherishes the ballet’s powerful ending, when Mowgli overcomes his fear and makes the brave choice to leave the jungle and his animal friends behind to begin a new life in the village of man.
