when: 11 Feb 2026 | venue: Whitefire Theatre | cost: $40 | address: 13500 Ventura Blvd., Sherman Oaks 91423In this powerful new play, a high school classroom becomes a courtroom battleground between two estranged brothers (JIM BEAVER and CHARLIE MOUNT) on opposing sides of the Evolution/Intelligent Design issue. With MEG LIN, ANNE LEYDEN and JOHN COMBS as the school board members, whose decision on whether or not to accept the state’s re-definition of science (allowing for the legal introduction of Creationism into their science classrooms) is being carefully watched by the country’s media and may influence school systems across the country. GEORGE TOVAR and CORRINE SHOR play parents of a child whose teacher was killed while teaching a Bible Literacy class. Adding her sly wisdom to the debate is the Board Secretary (SCOTTIE NEVIL) looking for a “lost cause” of her own to champion.
As the brothers engage in their battle of wits, the tension builds, and it becomes increasingly unclear who will win. Will the School allow the teaching of Intelligent Design? It’s a question being asked in actual school boards across the country right now!
Here Be Dragons is a harrowing (and occasionally hilarious) contemporary take on Inherit the Wind.
Written and directed by Charlie Mount.
