Nine-year-old Elmer Elevator is on a mission to rescue a baby dragon held captive on Wild Island. How will he pull off such an adventurous rescue? With pure luck—plus chewing gum, lollipop sticks, and rubber bands! Celebrating the 75th anniversary of Ruth Stiles Gannett’s Newbery Honor-winning adventure book My Father’s Dragon, Enchantment Theatre Company brings to life the story of an unlikely friendship between a courageous boy and a yellow and blue-striped dragon. For 25 years, Philadelphia-based Enchantment Theatre Company has used classical literature as its inspiration for original productions that blend the use of puppets, masks, creative scenic effects, and original music. “Everything about this world-class production is inventive and endearing; it fully captures the spirit of the beloved stories, the essence of childhood, and the imagination of the audience, both young and old” (Phindie).
Recommended for ages 4 to 10.
Tickets: $15
