BUCYRUS, OH (CRAWFORD COUNTY NOW)—On March 1 and 2, 2024, Bucyrus Elementary Auditorium will be alive with the sounds of the jungle as it hosts performances of Disney’s The Jungle Book KIDS. The 30-minute musical, adapted from the classic Rudyard Kipling novel and the beloved 1967 Disney film, is set to start at 7 p.m. on both days.

The production features a cast of approximately 50 elementary school-aged performers, led by director Betsy Gerhart and art teacher Matt Feck. The young actors will bring to life the madcap adventures of Mowgli, Baloo, King Louie, and the rest of the gang as they swing their way through the jungle and outsmart the ferocious tiger, Shere Khan.

Audiences can expect to hear their favorite Disney tunes, including “The Bare Necessities” and “I Wan’na Be Like You.” With its colorful characters and toe-tapping jungle rhythm, The Jungle Book KIDS promises to be a crowd-pleaser for all ages.

Tickets for the performances are open to the public and can be purchased at Bucyrus Elementary Auditorium for $5. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the magic of Disney’s The Jungle Book KIDS in Bucyrus!
