This witty adaptation of the Rudyard Kipling classic by Davis-raised playwright Briandaniel Oblesby is a thoughtful-yet-active and entertaining all-ages family show. The colorful puppets and masks (by Rachel Malin) and alluring “jungle” set were created with cleverly repurposed and recycled materials.
