Georgina and the Dragon by Geoff Bamber |
Roles | Minimum Male roles = 2. Minimum Female roles = 3. Minimum total with doubling = 15. Minimum total without doubling = 15. No chorus. Whilst there is no chorus, some flexibility in numbers could be created by changing the numbers of courtiers, soldiers, peasants and gremlins. |
Run Time | Around 25 minutes. [Estimated!] |
Music | None. |
Style | One-act comedy play for kids. Whilst there are two locations, it is intended to be played with minimal scenery (dragging the thrones off will be sufficient to indicate that we have left the palace!) |
Synopsis | With the kingdom terrorised by a fire-breathing dragon, the King desperately issues a call for help. With none forthcoming save the less than impressive Prince Jodrel, it falls to Georgina to take on the challenge. Unfortunately Georgina is the newly-appointed royal cook and isn't much better than the hapless prince. However, with a reward of a thousand gold pieces on offer, the unlikely pair must at least make an effort. |
