Introduction

This is not a pantomime, rather a play for children. Having successfully exterminated the weyr of dragons infesting the duchy, the Duke and his knights now wish to relax. However, our hero, Sir Oblong Fitz Oblong is not having any of this and demands that they should travel to unpleasant parts of the world to help the poor and needy. In order to avoid this, the Duke and his knights manipulate Oblong into taking on the mantle of a knight errant and despatch him to the dreaded Bolligrew Isles, where power is shared by the villainous Baron Bolligrew and a dreaded black dragon. In his quest to relieve the islands of Bolligrew’s tyranny and the dragon, Oblong encounters a host of characters including two talking magpies; peasants; Bolligrew’s evil henchman, Squire Blackheart; a Regius Professor of Wickedness, and many, many more. Mayhem ensues, including sword fighting and hellish sorcery, before the inevitable happy ending...well, for most of them, that is!
