Mowgli is a boy who gets along with everyone and who is
very likeable. He has joyful and curious nature, and a twinkle in his eye. The
child you cast should have a spark that can captivate the audience and should be
a bit feisty. |
| |
| |
Bagheera, the panther, is not gender-specific. You might
consider casting a female to play this role to help balance the male-to-female
ratio of the leading characters. Consider casting a child who might easily
portray the physical attributes of a feline. |
| |
| |
Baloo, the bear, should be cast by someone who is
exuberant with a great natural talent for singing and acting. Baloo provides
much of the comedic relief in the story, so the actor must possess a natural
sense of comedy. |
| |
| |
King Louie is King of the Monkeys. Cast an actor with
strong comedic timing and good singing ability. |
| |
| |
Shere Khan, the tiger, is King of the Jungle. Consider
casting someone who could be physically threatening, either in size, attitude,
or both. |
| |
| |
Colonel Hathi, the elephant, is in charge of the
elephant brigade, but is also a little forgetful. He is good at giving commands
but doesn't really understand what's going on around him. |
| |
| |
Kaa, the snake, supplies threat and danger to Mowgli's
journey out of the jungle. Cast someone with flair and good vocal and movement
skills to be the lead Kaa (the head of the snake). Cast five others as the body.
|
| |
| |
The Elephant Troupe can have as many or as few children
as you like, but cast enough to make it look like a brigade - at least eight.
They don't need to be strong singers, but should be good movers/dancers so they
can physicalize the behavior of elephants and march in and out of formation.
|
| |
| |
Baby Elephant can be cast with the smallest or youngest
child. There is a solo line in the song as well as marching. |
| |
| |
Old Monkey should be cast with a strong actor over a
singer. He or she should not be afraid to assume the physical traits of a
monkey. |
| |
| |
Monkeys should be strong dancers. "I Wan'na Be Like You"
offers the chance to do great musical choreography with the monkey troupe.
|
| |
| |
Shanti is the girl who takes Mowgli to the man-village
at the end of the story. She should exude sweetness and kindness and have a
natural ability for acting and singing. |
| |
| |
Jungle Chorus is your ensemble of singers, actors and
dancers. These roles offer great opportunities to use your students' varied
skills. |
| |
| |
Shanti's Family is not seen, but represented by offstage
voices. For fun, you might want to have a couple favorite teachers or the
principal say these lines from offstage or from the back of the performance
space. |
