Gallo Center Youth Academy Fall Semester
The dragon is back in town! Well… not really. That's the story a ragtag band of innkeepers makes up, desperate to draw questing heroes to the struggling Dancing Dragon Inn. Soon the inn is full of unexpected guests, from an army of princesses out to prove their bravery, to a group of overwhelmed heroes trying to hold onto their fame. But what happens if they all discover the innkeepers' dragon story is made up? Could there be more than one way to save the day? An epic folk-rock score brings magic to this funny, heartfelt fantasy musical.

The Gallo Center is pleased to be able to offer financial assistance each season. Assistance is granted to families that demonstrate a need and who would otherwise be unable to participate. A certain number of scholarships are set aside in each class per semester. Depending on the number of applications, we may not be able to offer every applicant a scholarship. If applying for a scholarship, please do not register in an effort to save a spot in the class. Registering will nullify your scholarship application.
