ABOUT THE SHOW: DRAGONS LOVE TACOS
What happens when you invite a flock of dragons to a taco party with spicy jalapeno salsa?
Find out in this imaginative theatrical adventure based on the popular children’s book Dragons Love Tacos by Adam Rubin, illustrated by Daniel Salmieri.
The mind-blowing, earth-shattering, tantalizing secrets of dragons revealed! What could go wrong when you give a dragon spicy salsa? EVERYTHING. The #1 New York Times bestselling phenomenon comes to life in an enchanting way as the taco party of all taco parties literally brings down the house. This deliciously funny story will have you laughing out loud and wishing you read the fine print more closely: “Now Made with Spicy Jalapeno Peppers.” This hilarious, dance-filled journey into the field of Dragonology is equal parts ridiculous and delicious and has all the ingredients for a fantastic time!

Dragons Love Tacos is presented through special arrangement with Plays For Young Audiences.

DIGITAL PLAYBILL
Once the show has opened, you can CLICK HERE to access the show’s Digital Playbill. Why digital and not printed? This decision had many factors that went into it including the reduction of our paper footprint in an effort to be more climate-conscious as well as budgetary restrictions coming out of the pandemic. Digital Playbills remain archived long-term and can be accessed HERE.
MEDIA AND MARKETING
From promotional and production video trailers to local television and radio spots, you’ll find it all here.
