A long, long time ago, dragons once lived and protected the world from the cold of the ice with the warmth of their fire. But over time, the ice began to destroy all living things. Arktos, a terrible snowman, has the ambition to cover the world with ice. The old dragon Tyrion wants to prepare his young son Tabaluga for his predestined task of protecting the world. But to do this, Tabaluga must find the True Fire, because only then can he put an end to the machinations of Arktos.

Tabaluga has the support of a magician and the dragon now sets off to find the fire. Tabaluga faces many dangers, such as in the form of the spider woman Tarantula, and also learns beautiful things. Tabaluga learns that the world, with all its good and evil, is wonderful and worth saving. Arktos wants to prevent Tabaluga from fulfilling his destiny and creates a beautiful creature out of pure ice, the girl Lilli.

Lilli's only task is to distract Tabaluga from his search for the True Fire.Tabaluga falls in love with Lilli as planned by Arktos, but in doing so Tabaluga learns about a great and beautiful power: Love.

With much love for the original, Tabaluga's adventures are once again transformed into a fairytale musical version for the whole family. Lovely costumes and innovative stage sets bring the world of the little dragon to life. The well-known hits by Peter Maffay and others offer the best musical entertainment for boys and girls aged four and over and for everyone who wants to bring their inner child back to life.
