Auburn Area Community Theatre, Young Performers are proud to present “Imagine A Dragon” by Beat by Beat Press

The dragon is back in town! Well… not really. That’s the story of a ragtag band of innkeepers make up, desperate to draw questing heroes to the struggling Dancing Dragon Inn. Soon the inn is full of unexpected guests, from an army of princesses out to prove their bravery, to a group of overwhelmed heroes trying to hold onto their fame. But what happens if they all discover the innkeepers’ dragon story is made up? Could there be more than one way to save the day? An epic folk-rock score brings magic to this funny, heartfelt fantasy musical. Tickets are $12/adults, and $10 students and seniors. Tickets are available starting August 28 at AuburnACT.org
