About
Dragon Knights, Inc. was founded by Lili Noden. She is the creative force, technical expert and lead trainer whose knowledge of street theater and performing arts began in her early childhood in southern France, her native country. She has spent a lifetime cultivating her passion for all aspects of performance, whether on stage, in front of the camera, behind the curtains, or up in the rafters
In December 1999 Lili settled in San Diego, California, clarifying her vision to share France’s unique performance art form with American audiences. In March 2000 Lili founded Dragon Knights, Inc., “Stilt Theater Show “ which allowed her to combine her passions for performance, technical construction, costuming, and teaching stilt theater. Almost immediately, Dragon Knights with new talent trained by Lili was performing all over California and around the globe. As its fame and popularity grew, Lili began creating new design of puppets for countless events, fairs, festivals, art shows and amusement parks across the country. During that time, Lili kept teaching the art of stilt walking, and she introduced in USA the latest design of wooden stilts from her masters. Today, 80% of stilt performers in California use that same design!
Dragon Knights continue to perform throughout the USA, Canada, Europe, and Asia, delighting children and adults alike with their fantastically imaginative characters. Two of Lili’s puppets regularly appeared in the Mad T Party at Disney’s California Adventure, featuring the latest design technology of these wood stilt puppets. As a perfectionist, Lili is relentless in her desire to innovate and inspire. She continues to design and build more sophisticated and complex mechanical characters. She is also actively teaching in the art of stilt and currently collaborating with one of the world’s best stilt acrobat from France to train talent and develop a production that includes the latest design of pneumatic stilts, allowing performers to do spectacular acrobatic performances.
Three years ago, Lili started a new production which they entitled Wander Wonder World part 1 Time Off!. Implementing a Jules Verne aesthetic. With the support of French artists Lili produced a series of new machines, including a flying boat, a stilt-driven canoe on wagon wheels, and a pedaling submarine machine. A giant mechanical fish is in the works, which will be the largest construction to date. In 2023 Lili partnered with Entertainment Café to handle all of her booking requirements while she is in her workshop, creating and planning a world tour.
