These two different Characters are ideal for outdoor or indoor events. However, Eli is better indoors as he cannot work in the rain. Rodney however, is more weatherproof and is happy to work outside in inclement weather conditions! Rodney the Dragon is booked well in advance for St. George's Day so you need to ring the office months beforehand if you want to book the Dragon. Both of the characters (who work separate and solo) can only appear on flat level ground. Steps and escalators are impossible but Lifts are fine. Please also bear in mind that the changing room needs to be idealy on the same floor Level as where each is appearing and good parking access is required. Either character will talk to children and adults alike and Rodney will even puff smoke and shout! Great for promoting any product or even to let people know if there is something special going on in a certain area. A very different Town Crier at times!
