Tickets Still Available for Jan. 14 Production of My Father's Dragon

Tickets still are available for the Jan. 14 performance of My Father’s Dragon, produced by A Season for the Child (SfC)—the family-oriented live theater season sponsored by the SIUE Friends of Theater and Dance (FOTAD). The production is based on the Newberry Honor book of the same name by Ruth Stiles Gannett.

2 p.m.
Saturday, Jan. 14
SIUE's Katherine Dunham Hall theater

This musical staging of the story takes us on a comic adventure to Wild Island, as performed by the Imaginary Theatre Co. of St. Louis.

Individual tickets are $5 per child and $7 per adult. They are available through the SIUE Fine Arts box office at (618) 650-2774.

My Father’s Dragon presents the story of Jim, who is restless at home while on summer vacation. However, mom knows just what will entertain him—the story of Grandpa’s adventures to rescue a captive dragon. Join Jim for a fantastic jungle journey past obstacles and wild animals as we discover the importance of perseverance and the wonderful power of imagination.

SfC, which premiered in 1990, features adaptations of various children’s stories using interactive techniques that not only delight children and parents, but also provide a thorough learning experience.

The final offering of the 2016-17 SfC season will be Pinocchio, performed by the Curtains Up Theatre Co. of Edwardsville-Collinsville. It’s set for two showings: 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Sturday, March 18.
