About Tarzan

Orphaned as a baby on the shores of Africa, Tarzan is adopted by his ape mother, Kala. As a child Tarzan struggles to fit in with the other gorillas, and it is not until he stumbles upon Jane Porter that he realizes he is human. Along his journey of self-discovery Tarzan wrestles with his identity as a man who grew up in the heart of the jungle. Throughout the story we meet his best friend Terk, his ape mother Kala, the leader of the apes, Kerchak, and many others who will help shape Tarzan into the man he will become. 

About The Department

Students within Morrison Drama Club and Thespian Society have worked tirelessly this year to fundraise for this show! As you will see, this particular show has a very special element that we have never incorporated before: a flying track system. Students in Morrison Drama Club look forward to attending Illinois High School Theatre Festival every year and they enjoy learning about acting, singing, stage combat, makeup, and so much more. We hope you enjoy the show and feel free to stop by the merchandise page and support the MHS Drama Department!
