Journey to a magical island where dinosaurs roam and anything could happen in new show Jurassic Adventures, coming to the Ipswich Regent this March.
Run by the slightly eccentric Professor McCoy and teenage daughter Alex, VIPS have been invited to visit their special theme park.
When the professor is caught up in a cyclone in the middle of the Peruvian jungle, she and the rest of the Jurassic Adventures team - glamorous but tactless paleo-botanist Paris Milton and the hapless young paleontology student Diego Carter - set off to rescue him.
There’s adventure, romance, comedy and plenty of chances to have some hands-on fun with pre-historic creatures and the arrival of the first paleolithic man, created from fossilized DNA.
Meanwhile, back at Jurassic Adventures, the two resident T-Rex’s aren’t getting along with the matriarch of the pair missing her newly-born baby Chub who is hatched and born live on stage. There’s even a chance to meet her afterwards.
The fully scripted show mixes culture, fun and education into a fun and complete theatrical experience for the whole family using a high-tech climate system that simulates artificial environments and state-of-the-art lighting.
The show is being brought to the UK for the first time by World on Stage and the team behind Disney on Ice.
Producer Stephen Leatherland said: “This is an exciting show for all the family where they will see dinosaurs come to life before their very eyes live on stage.”
Aimed at ages three and up, shows are at 1.30pm and 4.30pm on March 30. Tickets are on sale now.
