ABOUT THE PLAY: TOOTH & TAIL is a fantastic swashbuckler that explores the dynamics of female friendship. When Princess Plumeria is kidnapped, Vixen LaFey and her dragon Flicker are determined to rescue her – and bring her home for the reward money. But along the way, they must face pirates, a witch who won’t stop rhyming, curses, and monsters of all kinds. From the dazzling dangers of the forests, to the deep rivalry between Vixen and Pirate Captain Jessica Glass, TOOTH & TAIL is a heartwarming theatrical feast that speaks to the imagination in all of us.
