Description

How did the elephant get his trunk, the leopard his spots, or the rhinoceros his skin? These are just some of the riddles solved in this musical comedy from George Stiles and Anthony Drewe (the team who created Honk! and Mary Poppins). Set to an eclectic and upbeat score, and 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.
