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 sea, 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.

Set to an electric, upbeat score, Kipling’s “Just So Stories” are woven with wit and imagination into a song-filled journey.

So come and join us as we discover:

• How the leopard got his spots.
• How the rhinoceros got his skin.
• How the elephant got his trunk.
