...... travel on a wonderful, magical journey at the beginning of time and question why everything must be .....
An open book, an empty page,
Its time for magic to take the stage.
Create a world. Then watch it grow
And see my daydreams becoming
JUST SO!
Elephant's Child - 'There's no harm in asking why everything must be just so'
Based on the immortal short stories of Rudyard Kipling, Just So takes you on a fantastic journey along the banks of Africa's great, grey-green, greasy Limpopo River to meet an amazing collection of strange and wonderful creatures.
Set at the beginning of time, the musical introduces the Eldest Magician who has created a world of beasts and birds and fish. Everything was just so, until Pau Amma the Crab began playing with the ocean, causing a flood that threatened the other animals.
To stop the crab, the Elephant’s Child goes on a quest to the Limpopo River, and discovers many lessons including how the leopard got his spots, how the rhinoceros got his skin and how curiosity and a hungry crocodile can turn an elephant’s small nose into a very large trunk.
Set to a eclectic, upbeat score, Kipling’s “Just So Stories” are woven with wit and imagination into a song-filled journey through the jungle. And you will be inspired by its underlying message - that one determined individual can make a real difference in this world.
