Are you ready to help us take flight?
We are thrilled to partner with DreamWorks Theatricals and Music Theatre International to pilot this brand-new production! Our performers will be some of the first to ever perform this show onstage and will get to play an integral role in the developmental process. The script and score are still being adjusted and fine-tuned, and our production and performers will help guide the future of the title.

Based on the blockbuster franchise, this show follows the story of Hiccup – a hapless young Viking – who during his training to hunt dragons, becomes the unlikely friend of a young dragon named Toothless, and learns there may be more to the creatures than he assumed. During the war between Vikings and dragons, these two bridge the gap between sides and change the course of history forever.
We are looking for performers ages 18 and under to help us bring this story to life through singing, dancing, and puppetry!
