Join us for an adventure in the world of theatre, music, and dance!
This production, or rather theatrical adventure, is intended for audiences of all ages: the lovers of music, dance, acrobatics, and narrative theatre. Our goal is to recreate the experience most of us had upon first encountering Rudyard Kipling‘s The Jungle Book, with an emphasis on the connection between music, movement, and art.

Theatre

Matěj Forman and his team from the Forman Brothers‘ Theatre are the creators of the piece. The mask and costume designer is Andrea Sodomková. Together, they created an extraordinary visual experience that sparks the imagination of children as well as adults.

Music

The original score was composed by Marko Ivanović and is performed by 15 members of the Czech Philharmonic, which is undoubtedly the most significant symphony orchestra in the Czech Republic. The unconventionally designed orchestra structure is a fixed part of the stage set. The piece is conducted by Ivanović, with possible alternations.

Dance

12 performers, dancers, and acrobats occupy the stage in Štěpán Pechar’s choreography. Pechar, one of the artistic directors of the DEKKADANCERS company, captures the movements of animals with stunning accuracy and the illusion is emphasized by masks and costumes. One dancer changes up to eight costumes and characters during the show.

The Czech Philharmonic Orchestra played its first concert conducted by Antonín Dvořák on January 4, 1896, in the famed Rudolfinum Hall. The Czech Philharmonic Orchestra collaborates with the best Czech and world soloists, conductors, and composers. The first Czech orchestra performs in the most prestigious halls from the USA to Japan and releases critically acclaimed recordings.

The Forman Brothers’ Theatre is a living and breathing company without a fixed stage or cast, brought together by a shared view of work and life; a collective of theatre nomads, who believe in the magic of journeys and wandering. Moving, playing, meeting, and staying independent often leads them to unconventional theatre spaces that provoke audiences with their atmosphere, history, and intrinsic power.

DEKKADANCERS is a project-based dance company founded in 2009. Right from the start, they have been positively received by critics and audiences for their original movement, virtuosity, fresh humour, and unbridled energy. They have produced countless cross-genre performances and have established themselves as one of the most appealing contemporary dance companies in the Czech Republic, while also gaining popularity abroad.
