Funny adaptation of a famous Polish legend about the mythical dragon who once lived in a cave at the foot of Wawel Hill, under the castle in Krakow, on the banks of Vistula River. Between colourful court dances, knights fighting and everyday castle life someone will need to find the solution how to slay the beast and save the kingdom… Who will become a hero and a saviour of the city? Let us take you back in time with this medieval story where history mixes with fairy tale. Lots of fun for children and adults guaranteed!
