Dinosaur World Live is an Olivier Award-winning interactive theater experience that has become an international smash hit, touring the UK, USA, and Australia. Created by Derek Bond, the production features stunning, large-scale puppetry designed by Max Humphries (National Theatre, Royal Opera House). The show introduces Miranda, who grew up on a remote island off the coast of South America surrounded by dinosaurs. This current adaptation brings her prehistoric pals to London, combining educational facts with high-stakes theatrical storytelling. It is a "roar-some" 50-minute adventure designed to entertain and mind-expand audiences of all ages.
Storyline
The adventure begins on the mysterious island of Mundo de los Lagartos Terribles, where Miranda spent her childhood among once-extinct creatures. She has traveled to London to introduce her favorite friends, from Orlando the Microraptor to Gertrude the Giraffatitan. However, as the ground begins to shake and the fierce Titus the T-Rex makes an appearance, things become a little less docile than they seem. Miranda needs the help of the audience to manage her prehistoric family, but will the crowd be brave enough when the meat-eaters decide it's lunchtime?
