The timeless tale based on the Rudyard Kipling novel and the classic Academy Award-winning film comes to TMP in this seafaring musical! Set in 1928, Harvey, a spoiled 12-year-old boy who falls off his father's ocean liner, is rescued by Manuel, a Portuguese fisherman and brought aboard a New England fishing schooner. Put to work in a pre-modern world of ropes, sails and fishing lines, Harvey rebels and is soon branded a "Jonah" and blamed for the ship's bad luck. But with Manuel's help and friendship, Harvey leaves his boyhood behind, wins over the crew, and learns the value of hard work, spirit and song. A wonderful story for all theatergoers - young and old alike!
