From hatchlings to giants, come face-to-face with prehistoric wonders!

Travel back to a prehistoric world and meet creatures great and small, from a baby Triceratops to the wide-eyed Leaellynasaura and Australia’s fearsome Australovenator. 

Blending storytelling with science, this immersive live experience brings dinosaurs to life, not just how they looked, but how they lived, moved and cared for one another. 

Styled as a live wildlife presentation, big questions come to life through story, sound and stunning puppetry. Could a carnivore be raised as a herbivore? Did dinosaurs sing? What happens when one gets sick? 

Travel from lush ancient landscapes to the moment that changed everything, the extinction event that reshaped life on Earth. 

Although it features some of the biggest dinosaurs, this world premiere is packed with cuteness. Meet a clumsy, curious toddler T. rex and a delightful crèche of baby dinosaurs.

Created by Erth Visual & Physical Inc., world leaders in puppetry, this up-close theatrical experience will captivate curious kids and their grown-ups alike.
