Unfortunately Dragons and Mythical Beasts at The Lowry has been cancelled.

Are you ready to become a brave and unstoppable hero? This half-term, enter into a magical world of myths and legends in this incredible new puppetry show for all the family to enjoy – Dragons and Mythical Beasts at The Lowry. From the creators of the West End best-seller Dinosaur World Live, don’t miss this brand-new show-stopping adventure, live on stage! You will be mesmerised as puppeteers so skilfully animate and create a variety of mythical beasts, in this hilarious and spellbinding show. You might even be asked to get on stage and interact with the beasts themselves!

You’ll be faced with the most monstrous monsters and petrifying beasts ever to walk the earth, as you reveal a web of deep, dark secrets. Meet the tremendous Stone Troll, the mystifying Indrik and Japanese Baku; the not-so-sweet, very strange Tooth Fairy, a beautiful but inexplicable Unicorn and a dignified Griffin. It’s time to find your own place amongst heroes only heard of in myths and legends. But – SHUSH! Be careful – be quiet! You mustn’t wake that nasty dragon!

Unleash your inner mythical beast. Book your tickets to Dragons and Mythical Beasts at the Lowry by clicking on the link below.
