From the author of The Wind in the Willows, Kenneth Grahame, The Reluctant Dragon is a funny, touching and enchanting story of bravery, friendship and heroism. In this beloved classic story, a young boy befriends a poetry-loving dragon living in the Downs above his home. When the town-folk send for St. George to slay the dragon, the boy needs to come up with a clever plan to save his friend and convince the townsfolk to accept him.
This open air theatre performance will be fun for all the family; tickets are on sale now at £13 an adult, £8 a child and a great family offer of £30 (this ticket can be bought by groups with one adult with three children or two adults and two children).
Gates open at 3pm, with the show starting at 4pm. This highly anticipated performance of The Reluctant Dragon presents the ideal opportunity for a great family day out; visitors should bring along picnics, blankets, seating and warm clothing. Parking is available at car parks along Silbury Boulevard.
