Based on the popular children’s book by Adam Rubin, Dragons Love Tacos (DLT) is a delightfully silly & magical tale. The hilarious play has an underlying message about the importance of understanding differences & paying attention to details. One afternoon while doing homework, a boy & his dog uncover an earth-shattering secret: Dragons love tacos! Chicken tacos, beef tacos, big tacos, tiny tacos, all kinds of tacos. So, the boy & his dog throw the dragons a taco party, but they forgot the one topping that dragons don’t love. That’s when things really heat up!

Supported, in part, by a Missouri Humanities Council grant.
