For family audiences, the Rainbow Company presents the charming tale of The Reluctant Dragon (June 5-14) at the Charleston Heights Arts Center. The play is set in Guildermere, a village where the people blame the local dragon for all their woes. However, the dragon in question is no fearsome foe, but rather a very civilized creature who would rather recite poetry than breathe fire. Also, there’s the kid-friendly Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus show Zing Zang Zoom at the Orleans from June 19-21. In this magical circus spectacular, a four-ton elephant disappears before your eyes, a trapeze artist performs a perilous, anatomically unimaginable one-arm speed-spin high atop the arena floor, and two formidable, female human cannonballs are blasted through the air.
