Show lasts only 45mins and involves a lot of boring British talking.
Show only lasted 50 minutes; our tickets (on the cheaper side) were 50 each + 15 for parking. Overall not worth it. Production is lame and kids didn’t really enjoy it.
It was an expensive puppet show. From what I saw on the website I thought it was going to be more interactive.
Good show for the kids. Wasn’t as long as I hoped it would be for what I paid for the tickets but they really enjoyed it and I’d take them again.
The show started a bit late and was over in less than hour. Seemed a little expensive for that short of a show. Our 4 year old grandson enjoyed it but not really a show for anyone much older or younger. Not very realistic when the "handlers" feet are sticking out in plain site. Lots of dino facts included which made it educational but hard to hear with all the kiddos making noise. Glad we did it, but wouldn't do it again.
Very easy getting into venue. Plenty of staff to help find our seats. Show was great. Only downside is thought would be longer than an hour.
The dinosaurs were cool! But not long enough for the price paid.
My grandson loved it! I have to admit very creative! They need to announce on the advertising to bring cash. I did but others could not buy the souvenirs because they didn’t bring cash.
The show was just okay. My 4 year old son enjoyed it but there were some points where I thought they were going to lose him. More action, more dinosaurs, and less talking.
While the dinosaurs were absolutely phenomenal to see, we actually had a lot of difficulty hearing when she talked. My kiddo loved the experience and I loved that it was more educational than I had anticipated.
Show was only about 45 minutes. Lady talking was way too loud and obnoxious! Even out grandson who was 7 commented how annoying the lady was but enjoyed the dinosaurs.
I took all three of my kids who were 10, 8, and 4. They all loved it and had a great time. The bigger the dinosaurs got, the more blown away they were. When the roar of the T-Rex made our seats rumble, my 8 year old thought it was so cool. The smiles on their faces were priceless. This is definitely a great show that I would recommend to anyone with young kids who like dinosaurs.
We attended the show with our 5 and 2-1/2 year old grandsons. There was too much narration to keep the attention of the younger child, and he was not engaged. He did wave to the dinosaurs when they left the stage and liked seeing them when they were on stage. The 5 year old was able to participate by answering the questions posed by the narrator, so it was a better experience for him. I would recommend for ages 4-6 as they can participate but would possibly still believe that the dinosaurs were real. The dinosaur handlers were clearly visible, so an older child would pick up on that right away, as did an 8 year old near us, who was very disappointed. I would also recommend sitting further away from the stage so that the handlers are less visible. Would I attend again? Probably not, but it was worth the memories we made with our grandsons.
This was a very cute show. My son who is 5 and is obsessed with dinosaurs is still talking about this show 3 days later. They give awesome facts and follow a fun story line. The dinosaurs are amazing! I just wish the show was longer 50min was short.
Three grandparents and a 4 year old attended the show in Effingham Illinois. We didnt know what to expect. It was magical for all of us. The "animal handlers" were amazing. Miranda had everyone interacting with her. Definitely a must see show.
This 50 minute show was NOT worth the $$ we paid for tickets. Two of our three Grandkids enjoyed it, however the other one was bored. We definitely would NOT go again.
Great dino fun for the whole family. Our ticket was enchanted for v the entire show.
The 1 hr show is a good value for the ticket price. The microphone/sound of the narrator of the tour of the island needed work, very difficult to understand over the noise of the kids in the crowd. This show is for 7 years old and younger.
I would have omitted the bird and replaced with another big dinosaur
Brynn’s favorite was the baby and mother brontosaurus.
