The Styrian Fairy Tale Summer is an interactive theater event for children ages 3–12 and anyone who loves fairy tales; this year, it will take place for the ninth time in the courtyard of the seminary. The Fairy Tale Summer story will continue in 2023 with the fairy tale “The Jungle Book.” Of course, this will once again be a new adaptation by our Styrian author Michaela Riedl-Schlosser.
A brief summary: Mowgli has lived with the wolves in the jungle ever since she was a baby. Together with her wolf mother, Rakshasa, and her wolf siblings, she explores the jungle anew every day. But many dangers lurk there. If it weren’t for her friends Baloo the bear and Bagheera the black panther, who always protect Mowgli, she probably wouldn’t have survived in the jungle for so long. But when a rumor spreads that the dreaded tiger Shere Khan has returned to the jungle, Baloo, Bagheera, and Rakshasa decide to take Mowgli to Graz to keep her safe among the people. However, a snake named Kaa, the Monkey King, and Shere Khan himself try to stop the three of them.
We need your help again! A special surprise awaits Mowgli in the human world. Come join us as we dive into the jungle!
The Jungle Book – A New Roar! July 27–August 26, 2023, in the courtyard of the Graz Seminary, Bürgergasse 2, 8010 Graz
