    More like a high school play!

    by DadOfTheCentury on 2/11/15Valley Performing Arts Center - Northridge

    Very dissapointed with the show.... Why the a actors controlling the dinos did not have a their face and hNd cover was unprofesional.... The whole show your starring at the goofy actors face expression like if they are a part of the dinosaur world.... I have been to a few Sesame Street and yo gabba gabba live shows and this show doesn't come close to comparing them . Worst show of the year I would get a refund if it was possible but I will never go to another dinosaur train live show. I heard kids complaining around me " what are the people doing to buddy" "why are thy on stage they are not apart of dinosaur train". I would recommend dinosaur train to get real customs and not large size puppets.

    It was ok!

    by saragzl on 2/11/15Valley Performing Arts Center - Northridge

    I think it would have been more interesting if the animals had the puppeteers inside them. The puppeterrs being outside and so visible made it super distracting. Also, the music and songs were kind of boring too.

    Waste of money and time!

    by Elvinambz on 2/10/15Valley Performing Arts Center - Northridge

    Horrible show! I wish I can get my money back! What a waste! The dinosaurs have people holding them, so kids realize they are not real. It's like playing with stuffed animals but in bigger size. And mostly singing songs so it's musical show. Very annoying.

    Could have been SO much better. Set design was non-existent. Wish they had played to a child's imagination with creative and magical sets. Too much dialog also. Was boring for a 2 year old and unbearable for a 30 year old. Makes me think I should start my own children's play productions...

    Dinosaur Train was disappointing

    by BankerPat on 2/10/15Valley Performing Arts Center - Northridge

    We were expecting a musical performance that Jim Henson would have been proud of. NOT! The 4 and 5 year old boys we took were engaged for about 5 minutes and you could see the anticipation in their faces, but then you could see the disappointment and then boredom. We left at the break. The boys were happy to leave.

    Good show for kids, but egregious intermission

    by kalter247 on 2/10/15Valley Performing Arts Center - Northridge

    The content of the show is barely an hour long but they inserted a nearly half hour intermission for the obvious purpose of making kids see all the toys and crap for sale in the lobby and getting parents to buy some. Meanwhile, the entire event went on much longer than it needed to, which was difficult with a 3 year old. My son spent the entire intermission asking when the dinosaurs were going to come back, which was pretty hard to explain and, more importantly, totally unnecessary.

    pretty boring

    by yeep on 2/10/15Valley Performing Arts Center - Northridge

    My 2 1/2 year old grandson watches the TV show and likes live events so I bought the tickets. The stage was very poorly lit. There was way too much dialogue and not nearly enough action, dancing and music . The first half was ok and my grandson enjoyed it. But when we came in after intermission and the show started introducing a large T Rex with an Elvis voice singing a slow and cumbersome song he said DONE. This show cannot hold a candle to Sesame Street Live or any Disney show or Power Rangers, etc that I've been to both with my own children and my grandson. Disappointing.

    The show was great. Our kids really loved it. They're 4 & 2. The only disappointing thing was that they wanted a Buddy stuffed animal as a souvenir, but they sold out quickly of the merchandise. I would recommend the show for other parents of small children who enjoy the show "Dinosaur Train".

    Good show!

    by Wilson101 on 1/20/15Music Hall At Fair Park - Dallas

    Our son and daughter loved it. All the same songs they know and love. This show is done with large puppets which my son just loved. My only complaint is that they were selling plush toys and ran out before the show even started? They had a minimal supply and my son was extremely disappointed.

    Dinosaur Train: Buddy's Big Adventure

    by concertchica on 1/20/15Music Hall At Fair Park - Dallas

    I took my three year old grandson and we thoroughly enjoyed the show. The characters were all great and they kept the children engaged.

    Awful

    by Dallascity on 1/20/15Music Hall At Fair Park - Dallas

    This was the worst production I've seen in a long time. Very low budget. There was nothing visual other than puppetry and a train. The entire show was a sing along to the dubbed in music. No bang for the buck and not enough entertainment for the children. Very disappointed in the lack of "fun" and "child interaction" that was described in the original write up.

    Great Show!

    by Boymom87 on 1/20/15Music Hall At Fair Park - Dallas

    My 2 1/2 year old son really enjoyed the show and I thought it was really entertaining myself. The duration was perfect with a 15 minute intermission. It was a family friendly environment and everyone was really nice and helpful. My only complaint was that the merchandise sold out fast. They did not have enough Buddy and Tiny stuff animals and every kiddo wanted one. We stood in line and by the time it was our turn they were completely sold out and it was an hour before the show. Overall the show was very entertaining and my son and I loved it. I recommend it to every family.

    Dinosaur Train

    by CAGMHCY on 3/20/14Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts - Raleigh

    We really enjoyed this show. We read some of the other reviews and thougth that this was going to be costumes that the people were in. We were suprised to see that they were large puppets. The only thing I had a problem with is that alcohol was bing sold to people in this show. It was a children's show and I do think it should not have been allowed. I do realize there are other shows going on at the same time and do not have a problem with the theater itself selling the alcohol, it should not be allowed in this particular show.

    She Loved It

    by Notmemaw on 3/9/14Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts - Raleigh

    My granddaughter and daughter went. Said it was amazing. Her 3 year old loved it. The merchandise was well thought out and placement was good . Very friendly environment for the little ones.

    It was fun over all for the kids. Not too long, not too short. I thought that merchandise selling was pushed really hard though and taking into account that it was for kids I would caution other parents.

    Poor adaptation from show to stage

    by AndreaCC on 3/5/14Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts - Raleigh

    This seemed like a cheap way to cash in on kids' obsessions with Dinosaur Train. The story was almost identical to an already produced episode. There was nothing new or educational about the program like there usually is in the show and my 4 year old was bored by intermission and asked to go home. The puppets looked amazing, but the actual puppeteers were extremely distracting and at one point my four year old actually asked why there was a man's head up a dinosaur's bottom. We would definitely not attend or recommend this show to anyone.

    Sound Quality was Terrible

    by atlasmom on 3/5/14Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts - Raleigh

    The sound quality at Dinosaur Train was terrible. We sat in the front row of Orchestra and the show sounded like it was occurring down in a deep well. Disappointed that the songs and story were pre-recorded - With name Dinosaur Train LIVE I expected the actors to voice the parts.

    Dinosaur Train Disappointing

    by Okaygal on 3/5/14Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts - Raleigh

    Though actors behind the puppets were dressed in black, even my 4 year old granddaughter "saw them" above and behind the puppets. Obviously to dress as they did in Luon King is too expensive; we would have preferred they totally be in the puppet's costume , like Barney. After all, they mimed to a recording!
