Lady Gregory's The Dragon is a short play from the early 20th century that weaves Irish mythology with a sharp critique of political and social dynamics. Known for its blend of humor and cultural commentary, the play centers on themes of heroism, deception, and the supernatural, capturing the richness of Irish folklore and Gregory's skillful storytelling.
Isabella Augusta, Lady Gregory (1852-1932) was an Irish dramatist and folklorist. With William Butler Yeats and others, she co-founded the Irish Literary Theatre and the Abbey Theatre, and wrote numerous short works for both companies. She also produced a number of books retelling stories from Irish mythology.
