Much like the beloved Disney flick, the story follows Mowgli during his adventures through the jungle with his beastly friends as he tries to escape the scheming evil tiger Shere Khan.
Tickets are on sale now and start at €21.
The Gaiety Panto kicks off on November 27 2022 and runs until January 2023.

The beloved Dublin theatre was forced to cancel its panto last year before its run ended due to the spread of the Omicron variant of Covid-19.
The Gaiety Theatre announced on December 26 2021 that the remainder of its The Little Mermaid shows would be called off. This came after audience numbers for live events such as pantomimes, concerts and other shows had to be slashed to 50% of venue capacity due to Government guidelines at the time.
