This month at our DragonBird Song live shows we need your help to solve a mystery... the case of the missing spots! 🐞 The ladybirds simply can't find their spots anywhere, so it's up to the DragonBird Detective Agency to look for clues and crack the case through play and song. Join us today at The Greenbank at 1pm or tomorrow at Redland Park URC and let's make this mystery history! 🔍

Dragon and Bird are busy getting ready for you to come and join us this Wednesday down at The Greenbank Pub Easton! DragonBird Song is a 50-minute live session that uses the interactive and immersive Theatreplay we have been bringing to children for over ten years with some added exploration through song. We'll be using harmonies, singing in the round and other musical tricks, but you don’t need to be a singer to join us - just bring your imagination!

Visit https://www.dragonbirdtheatre.co.uk/song to find out more and book tickets. And if you can't make this Wednesday, check out our other dates across Bristol and Bath this month 🎶

Oh HEY! Check this out - our very own Fran has written an eBook for children, and it is now available to buy on Amazon!!

Scarlett Jones is quite nearly six years old and very ready to go on an adventure. Luckily her Granny is an amazing inventor, and helps send her to a magical world of knights and wizards! But there's a big grumpy dragon outside the castle, and he's a bit very scary... can Scarlett help get rid of him? Or is there another way to deal with a mean old dragon?

Suitable for children aged 5-8, with lots of colourful pictures by illustrator Andrea Benko, this will be fun to read for parents and children alike :)

And if you love Scarlett Jones, keep an eye out for more adventures, coming soon! (plus paperback versions too!)
