TARZAN – The Stage Musical brings Disney’s epic animated film to life on stage in a high-flying action adventure, complete with aerial choreography and unforgettable music by Phil Collins — including the Academy Award-winning “You’ll Be in My Heart,” “Son of Man,” “Two Worlds,” and all the hits from the iconic film.
Tarzan struggles to find where he truly belongs, torn between the animal kingdom and the human world. With book by Tony Award-winning playwright David Henry Hwang, at its core TARZAN is a story of identity, love, and the universal quest for connection.
Seen by over 7 million.... TARZAN premieres at The National Theatre, exclusive to Melbourne!
