Synopsis
The Post drama critic called this, "A wonderful piece of fancy and fun." The children are back in a world millions and millions of years ago, transported the moment they enter the theatre into the atmosphere of the last age of the dinosaurs. In front of them is a dinosaur egg, tapping out a call for help. The children interpret what the egg is saying and help the egg to hatch. They form an uneasy alliance with a rough Triceratops, protect the newly formed dinosaur family, and defeat Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Customer Reviews
We love this script! It is such a popular show with our audiences.
The play was very well received by our audiences. Some found T-Rex a bit scary, but most had nothing but positive things to say. The audience loved the participation; even the adults were doing the Tank salute.
