Overview

Playwright Jan Silverman adapts the much beloved Just So Stories of Rudyard Kipling into a theatrical and strikingly imaginative stage play that can be performed for and by young theatre lovers. Including favorites tales such as "How the Camel Got His Hump", "How the Rhinoceros Got His Skin", "The Elephant's Child", "The Sing-Song of Old Man Kangaroo", "The Beginning of the Armadillos", and "The Cat That Walked by Himself", Silverman playfully captures Kipling's facination with legends, the nature of man, and the way things became the way they are today. An enjoyable, timeless script for all ages, this play is appropriate for schools, communities, and both amateur and professional children's theatres.
