When you create stage shows that star a flying dragon and a menagerie of fantastic beasts, you need to set your creative sights high. That’s what Universal Orlando did when it devised the two theatrical productions at its new Epic Universe theme park, which opened Thursday. The park’s How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk section is home to “The Untrainable Dragon,” a stage show that features characters from the popular TV and film franchise - which has a new live-action film premiering in June.
