By: Tyler Peterson
Selected from submissions from around the world, MY BFF, THE DRAGON, by Ryan Cavanagh, will be the final production of Express Children's Theatre 24th season, "Around the World and Across the Street."
A rollicking family adventure with original music, MY BFF, THE DRAGON tells the story of a Human Prince and a Dragon Princess forced into an age-old battle by their parents. But in the heat of the conflict, the royal offspring discover that they have a lot more in common than they ever imagined.
The play examines issues of racism and bigotry in an accessible way that will appeal to people of all ages.
The play is directed by David LaDuca; with original music by Garrick Gonzalez; costumes by Becky Maymi, and sets and choreography by David LaDuca. The cast includes Jordi Viscarri as Prince Peter, Chaney Moore as Princess Puffa, Chris Gibson as the Human King, and Robert Meza as the Dragon Queen.
