Broadway is swinging! Disney's newest musical, "Tarzan," had its world premiere on May 10 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway in New York City. In the spectacular tradition of Disney on Broadway, the Lord of the Apes joins such stage gems as "Beauty and the Beast," "The Lion King," and Elton John and Tim Rice's "Aida." To get a look behind the jungle vines, we turned to David Henry Hwang, who wrote the book for the show (in stage lingo, the book is the script for the non-musical portion of a musical production). David was part of a stellar creative lineup including Phil Collins, who wrote the music and lyrics, Bob Crowley, the director and scenic & costume designer, and Josh Strickland (Tarzan) and Jenn Gambatese (Jane), the stars of the show. He joined the "Tarzan" team in 2001, but he was no stranger to Disney, having worked on Elton John and Tim Rice's "Aida."
