2021 Production of the Musical Theatre Club – The Tail of Sheer Khan

 

This year Ombrosa Musical Theatre club have been working very hard to prepare a condensed, but atmospheric, retelling of an adaptation of The Jungle Book story. A group of villagers who stumble into a dark corner of the jungle reflect on how Mowgli, a human child, ended up living with a pack of wolves.

We discover how Mowgli learnt to live with the animals pursued by a revengeful tiger, Sheer Khan, whose tail was burnt off by a human from the man village. The story introduces us to many of the familiar characters from the original story with a plot that is exciting, amusing and dramatic.

 

The Musical club is open to students from 6ème through to 3ème and provides the opportunity to work as part of a team towards a final product, while developing a range of essential skills including singing, dancing, acting, writing and directing.

 

This year we have worked in unusual conditions, but embraced Covid by creating characters who will be in masks while respecting social distancing régulations. The show has been postponed, it will take place in OMBROSA on June 17 and 18 with a limited audience.
