Used with permission. chapter 1 O Taming the Wildest What We've Made of Louis Prima jOHN j. PAULY For over forty years, Louis Prima had survived one change after another in the pop~ ular music business. He was, in succession, a trumpet section player in his home~ town ofNew Orleans, the front man for a popular New York City jazz quintet, and the leader of a touring big band. In the 1950s, with his career flagging, he reinvent~ ed himself as a spectacular Las Vegas lounge act, then nudged his career through the 1960s with help from his old friend, Walt Disney. He explored many forms of popular music along the way, but aspired only, in his own words, to "play pretty for the people." The same man who wrote the jazz classic "Sing, Sing, Sing," would also record easy listening instrumental music, Disney movie soundtracks, and ltalian~American novelty songs. In all these reincamations, he performed with an exuberance that inspired his Vegas nickname, "the wildest." Prima's career would end in deafening silence, however. He spent the last thirty~five months of his life in a coma, following a 197 5 operation in which doctors partially removed a benign tumor from his brain stem.

1 the Jungle Book Scene 1
1 The Jungle Book Scene 1: Mowgli’s Found in the Jungle Basu: Many strange legends are told of these jungles of India. But none as strange as the story of a small boy named Mowgli. It all began when the silence of the jungle was broken by an unfamiliar sound. (O.S. Baby is crying) It was a sound like one never heard before in this part of the jungle. Bagheera: (enters on stage) It’s a man-cub! Basu: Had Bagheera known how deeply he would be involved with Mowgli, he might have obeyed his first impulse to walk away. But Bagheera knew this man-cub would need nourishment, and soon. It would take many days to travel to the nearest man-village, and without a mother's care, well, he would soon perish. Then it occurred to him. (Bagheera grabs the basket by his mouth and starts walking to the corner to the wolves’ family den. Bagheera places basket by cave and nudges basket, creating a cry from Mowgli. Bagheera hides on the side of the stage watching the interaction of Mother Raksha and 4 wolf cubs coming to see what the noise was) Basu: Bagheera knew a family of wolves that had been blessed with a litter of cubs, and he believed there'd be no problem with the mother, Raksha, accepting this man-cub into the family thanks to maternal instinct. But he wasn’t so sure about Rama, the father. [Rama comes from side stage, looks at the man-cub and smiling face of Raksha, looks at cute Mowgli again and smiles too.] Basu: Ten times the rains have come and gone.

Character Breakdown Mowgli Mowgli Is a Boy Who Gets Along with Everyone and Who Is Very Likable
Character Breakdown Mowgli Mowgli is a boy who gets along with everyone and who is very likable. He has a joyful and curious nature, and a twinkle in his eye. The child you cast should have a spark that can captivate the audience and should be a bit feisty. Choose a boy with a natural talent for acting and singing. Gender: Male Bagheera The role of Bagheera, the panther, is not gender-specific. You might consider casting a female to play this role to help balance the male-to-female ratio of the leading characters. Consider casting a child who might easily portray the physical attributes of a feline. Your Bagheera should be physically agile and uninhibited with good command of his or her body. The actor should also possess a natural talent for acting, singing and leading a story. Bagheera should act like an older brother or sister to Mowgli. Gender: Both Baloo Baloo, the bear, should be cast by someone who is exuberant with a great natural talent for singing and acting. Baloo provides much of the comedic relief in the story, so the actor must possess a natural sense of comedy. Consider casting a child who might easily have the physical traits of a big bear and who is not afraid to be wild and crazy and physically uninhibited. The actor should not be self-conscious and should enjoy the spotlight. Baloo's part in "I Wan'na Be Like You" demands a singer with a strong sense of rhythm. Gender: Male Kaa Kaa, the snake, supplies threat and danger to Mowgli's journey out of the jungle.

Elena Plackis Professor Hearne English 4995 May 2015 the Imitation Phenomenon
Plackis 1 Elena Plackis Professor Hearne English 4995 May 2015 The Imitation Phenomenon By emphasizing the societal components of law, language, and conformity in The Jungle Book, Rudyard Kipling analyzes the condition of mankind internally and externally. The internal condition explores the progress of man evolutionarily while the external investigates man in relation to other men. One moment in particular that exemplifies the convergence of these motifs is the point at which the wolf pack ostracizes the feral child, Mowgli. Despite Mowgli’s conformity to the wolves in law and language, the lawless animals reject him from their pack: “‘No man's cub can run with the people of the jungle!’ roared Shere Khan. ‘Give him to me.’ ’He is our brother in all but blood,’ Akela went on; ‘and ye would kill him here. In truth, I have lived too long. Some of ye are eaters of cattle, and of others I have heard that, under Shere Khan's teaching, ye go by dark night and snatch children from the villager's doorstep. Therefore I know ye to be cowards, and it is to cowards I speak. It is certain that I must die, and my life is of no worth, or I would offer that in the man-cub's place. But for the sake of the Honor of the Pack,— a little matter that, by being without a leader, ye have forgotten,— I promise that if ye let the man-cub go to his own place, I will not, when my time comes to die, bare one tooth against ye.
