dragons is dedicated to the birthing of new and temporary creatures:
equal-power situations in which audience members cooperate amongst
themselves, building up fragile networks held together by such light
things as skin contact, unfamiliar language, temporary logic, the spirit
of celebration, and things that work but you don't know why. lucky
