The Reluctant Dragon
A Children’s Play
Adapted by Mary Hall Surface
based on the children's book by Kenneth Grahame
Three performances:
November 14th, 2008 at 9:30 am and 1:00 pm

November 15th, 2008 at 7:00 pm is open to the public with an offering at the door instead of admission
This is a sweet story about friendship.
Glaston loves battles and dragons. She reads as much as he can find about those two subjects. When she finds out there may be a dragon near her village, she can’t wait to discover him.
Glaston finds out that even though you have read and studied a subject, the real thing may be very different.
The story of The Reluctant Dragon is written with the young audience in mind. We hope it will be enjoyable for all ages, but, the young student will enjoy the down to earth writing and simple, sweet story.
The cast is made up of veteran Children’s Theater actors with talented beginners mixed in. They are all excited to bring the play to life!
