Tarzan
 

“Best Theatre Classes in Southern Westchester”- Westchester Magazine
Book by David Henry Hwang
Music and Lyrics by Phil Collins
Directors: Jason Brantman and Fiona Santos
Performed by: The BTC Junior Ensemble
*Rated G

WHAT:
Based on Edgar Rice Burrough's Tarzan of the Apes and the smash-hit 1999 Disney animated film, TARZAN tells the story of an infant boy orphaned on the shores of West Africa. Taken in and raised by a tribe of gorillas, the young boy strives for acceptance by his ape father while grappling with his uniqueness. A fantastic adventure musical perfect for the whole family!

"The emotional themes are universal ones -- parental loss, mother-son attachment, the quest for paternal approval, the struggle with identity, the discovery of love." -Variety

"It's David Henry Hwang's sprightly libretto that makes this Tarzan fly. Hwang contributes a script with a light but full heart, one that aims to amuse and enlighten children without patronizing them, or us." -USA Today
