In the late 'Spring-Autumn Period', there was an official named Zhao Jianzi from Jin Guo. During one of his hunting trips, he chanced upon a wolf which he quickly shot with his bow and arrow. However the wolf survived and managed to flee with despite its wound. On its run, the wolf met a kind scholar by the name of Dong Guo, whom the wolf pleaded with to save its life. Moved by the wolf's words, Dong Guo helped the wolf by hiding it in its sack and put Jianzi on the wrong path when Dong Guo was asked about the location of the wolf. However instead of thanking Dong Guo, the wolf tried to eat Dong Guo in return! How will Dong Guo be able to avert this crisis and handle this situation?

Mr Dong Guo is Paper Monkey Theatre's adaptation of a Chinese classic story, where children learn about the limitations and consequences of being too nice, while getting to know the art of Puppetry. Coupled with modern theatrical elements, Mr Dong Guo will definitely entertain everyone, from the young to the young at heart!
