When a fierce and deadly dragon flies over the school, everyone’s alarmed…until the internet weighs in. It’s not long before students and faculty alike are inspired to ignore the fire in the parking lot and join the movement. Soon, the only person not roaring, wearing a tail, and accepting a dragon-based curriculum is shy, awkward Stanley Berenger. But will anyone else join him in fighting back? Inspired by Ionesco’s classic satire Rhinoceros, Don’t Wake the Dragon is a smart, flexible-cast comedy for all ages.
