The Concrete Jungle Book (Edinburgh Preview)

The Concrete Jungle Book is a brand new hip hop musical which catapults Rudyard Kipling’s classic story into inner-city Britain with live rap music, grime, spoken word and high energy physicality.

As the jungle’s trees become tower blocks, Mo(wgli) navigates his way through relationships, unstable housing and hostile creatures, whilst searching for the father figure he’s always longed for. This is The Jungle Book like you’ve never imagined.

“An articulate, amusing and angry political rant through the medium of grime”
