The Lonely Dragon is based on a therapeutic story I wrote about isolation and making friends. The play How the Zebra got his Stripes tells the fun story of the legend of how all the different jungle animals came to look like they do today. The Selfish Giant is based on the very popular short story by Oscar Wilde. The Land of Trolls and Gargoyles is a play about a child’s attachment to his parent, and No Excuse deals with the topic of bullying.
