Dinosaur Extravaganza
An original production with music composed by Phil Marks & Savannah Zwi
"Dinosaur Extravaganza" is an original musical that takes the audience on a wild and bumpy ride!
After getting sucked back in time during a game in a sandpit we are transported to the Mesozoic era where we stumble upon a giant, glowing egg. Who does it belong to?
Get ready to meet T-rex, Stegosaurus, Triceratops, Pterodactyl, Mosasaurus, Brachiosaurus & more unusual creatures... We better find the mysterious egg's mother before it cracks open!
The music for this show was composed by Phil Marks; "Dinosaur Song" was composed by Savannah Zwi.

CREATING THE DINOSAURS
Each dinosaur is a puppet that can be manipulated in a different way, whether it's a moving jaw, clapping plates, a nodding head or wobbling walking legs. Below are a couple of pictures which show the process of creation:
