Tarzan does not have experience with outside world and cannot speak any language as well, but he is intrigued by Ruby annoying D.K. Ruby's dad and D.K plans to capture Tarzan and take him to work for Apollo Circus owned by Krishnakant Verma. Tarzan is captured before Tarzan and Ruby's romance could take wing. Tarzan is chained and taken to the circus and made to spend the rest of his days performing various acts, thus leaving D.K. Would Tarzan escape from Circus ? Would Ruby agrees to marry D.K. ? All these questions are answered in Climax. Tarzan: The Musical is based on the Disney film of the same name, which is, in turn, adapted from the 1914 novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs. The songs are written by Phil Collins with a book by David Henry Hwang. The musical mostly follows the plot of the Disney film: Tarzan is raised by gorillas, meets Jane, a young English naturalist, and falls in love.
Jane's entourage plans to kill the gorillas, and Tarzan's loyalties are tested. The original Broadway production opened in 2006, directed and designed by Bob Crowley with choreography by Meryl Tankard. The production ran for 35 previews and 486 performances. Subsequently, the show has been staged in several foreign countries and by regional theatres.
