About the event

My Father's Dragon - This free outreach show is recommended for grades K-6. Please arrive 20-30 minutes early to check in and be ready for seating with your group. Group assignments will be given after all have rsvp'd. Tickets are limited.

In collaboration with author Ruth Stiles Gannett and in celebration of the books’ 75th Anniversary, Enchantment Theatre Company brings the three tales of My Father’s Dragon to the stage for the 2024-2025 touring season. A star-studded animated movie was released on Netflix in November 2022. 

When nine-year old Elmer Elevator hears about a baby dragon who is held captive by the ferocious animals of Wild Island, he sets off on an adventure to rescue the dragon and return him home. With the help of his friend the Alley Cat, Elmer packs everything he thinks he’ll need – including chewing gum, two-dozen lollipops, seven hair ribbons and a box of rubber bands! With pluck and ingenuity Elmer makes his way to the Island, outwits the wild animals and saves Boris, the dragon. But can they find their way back home? As they travel over the ocean they get lost in a storm and discover a magical island of escaped canaries. The resourceful Elmer helps the canaries overcome their “curiosity disease” and uncover a stash of hidden riches. With bags of gold and the canaries’ blessings, the dauntless duo at last returns home.

With talking animals, a daring rescue, a flying dragon, buried treasure and lots of humor throughout, this fabulous adventure is brought to the stage in Enchantment Theatre’s distinctive style. Using puppets, masks, inventive scenic effects and original music, Enchantment Theatre Company is delighted to bring you the story of a compassionate and courageous young boy and his unlikely friendship with a splendid yellow and blue-striped dragon.
