| Elmwood Players Children’s Theatre “The Near Sighted Knight And The Far Sighted Dragon” By Eleanor and Ray Harder Directed by Susan Cameron and Garry Thomas On stage January 2013 A snappy, action-filled fairy tale. Despite his extreme near-sightedness, an unemployed knight charges everything in his path, hoping to become a hero so he can get a job. He tries to convince a career-minded princess she needs rescuing. But she's busy working on a mathematical formula to rescue her father, the king, imprisoned by a power-hungry duchess. The knight charges forward, uninvited, to rescue the king, then he becomes sidetracked by an opportunity to fight a dragon. Season has now concluded. The non-violent, rather mellow dragon and the exasperated princess subdue the knight and then the trio follow the princess' plan to rescue the king. Cast confirmed...
