Tarzan (the musical) presented by Mercer Island High School Drama Department
Washed up on the shores of West Africa, an infant boy is taken in and raised by gorillas who name him TARZAN. Apart from striving for acceptance from his ape father, Tarzan's life is mostly monkey business until a human expedition treks into his tribe's territory and he encounters creatures like himself for the first time. Tarzan struggles to navigate a jungle, thick with emotion as he discovers his animal upbringing clashing with his human instincts.
Book by Henry David Hwang and music and lyrics by Phil Collins, Tarzan is based on the Disney movie and Edgar Rice Burroughs' book.
Come enjoy the MIHS Drama Department's spring musical, playing May 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 10 at 7:00 p.m. in the Performing Arts Center.
