About the show

Zog and the Flying Doctors is suitable for ages 3+ but all ages welcome. It has a running time of approximately one hour (no interval).

Zog, an enthusiastic student who has transformed into an air-ambulance, still makes a dramatic entrance with a loud bang-crash-thump. Along with his team, Princess Pearl and Sir Gadabout, they provide medical assistance to an array of unique patients: a sunburned mermaid, an over-horned unicorn, and a flu-stricken lion. However, their mission faces a challenge when Pearl’s uncle, the King, insists that princesses shouldn’t be doctors. Pearl finds herself confined to the castle, forced back into her crown and frilly dress.

Determined to change her uncle’s mind, Pearl, with assistance from her friends and armed with half a pound of cheese, sets out to heal the King. Through this quest, she aims to demonstrate that princesses can indeed be skilled doctors, challenging traditional roles and expectations.
