Rudyard Kipling

The Syracuse University Drama Department's production of Edward Mast's play "Jungalbook" offers an hour and a quarter of fast-moving, colorful, acrobatic adventure.
It's a thriller: a lively and often funny piece of story-telling based on Rudyard Kipling's tales about a young boy who from infancy is raised in the jungle as part of a wolf pack.
It hasn't been promoted as children's theater, but it's a show that children will enjoy. Not very young ones, perhaps, but from about eight years old.
The playwright's choice of the spelling "Jungalbook" echoes Kipling's own occasional use of phonetic spelling, and it handily distinguishes the play not only from "The Jungle Book" by Kipling but also from various other versions of Kipling's work.
