A play by James DeVita
“Bambi: A Life in the Woods” is a contemporary American play based on the 1923 novel by Austrian author Felix Salten. It is considered by many to be the first environmentalist novel.
In the 1940s, Disney studios released the classic animated film based on Salten’s novel. This play is not, however, the Disney version.
Playwright James DeVita has gone back to Salten’s original novel to retell the story for a modern audience.
