Wizards, and Dragons, and Books OH MY!
This event has passed.
Fantasy Theatre Factory presents a free live performance of Wizards, and Dragons, and Books OH MY! at the Miami Beach Botanical Garden on Saturday, July 16. This fun show weaves featured books into its thru-line to create a show that both encourages reading and celebrates diversity.
Wizards, and Dragons, and Books OH MY! tells the story of Jojo, a kid who loves to read. That is, until some kids in the lunchroom start calling her names like "bookworm." To avoid the bullying, Jojo goes to Mendel's Magical Book Shop, hoping that she can sell her books and use the money to buy video games, so she'll fit in with the other kids. Once in the Magic Book Shop though, things take an unexpected turn as the stories in her books magically start to jump to life all around her! Now, all of the pages to Jojo's books are blank and the characters from her books are running wild in real life! It's up to Jojo to retell the stories to get her old friends to go back on the page. While she retells stories, Jojo remembers why she loves to read some much in the first place
