Dinosaurs return to the earth in a live theatrical show at the Arena at Harbor Yard, Walking with Dinosaurs - The Live Experience." Based on the award-winning BBC Television Series, this production has already been seen by more than one million Americans.

The show features ten species from the entire 200 million year reign of the dinosaurs, including the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the terror of the ancient terrain; the Plateosaurus and Liliensternus from the Triassic period; the Stegosaurus and Allosaurus from the Jurassic period; and Torosaurus and Utahraptor from the awesome Cretaceous.  The largest dinosaur on display, the Brachiosaurus, stands 36-feet tall and 56-feet from nose to tail.

The show depicts the dinosaurs’ evolution, complete with the climatic and tectonic changes that took place, which led to the demise of many species. The history of the world is played out with the splitting of the continents, the formation of oceans, the eruption of volcanoes and the transition from arid desert planet to lush green prairies.  All events lead to the impact of a massive comet, which struck the earth and forced the extinction of the dinosaurs.

Performances are Wed.-Fri. at 7:30 p.m., Sat. at 11 a.m., 3 p.m. and 7 p.m., and Sun. at 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
