Go Walking With Dinosaurs!

Thursday night was no ordinary night for me, because it is not every night that one is invited to travel through  millions of years to witness how life truly was when dinosaurs ruled the planet. The theatrical show, Walking With Dinosaurs, was created after the huge success of the BBC TV series and is shown in countries all across the globe. You were able to see how the dinosaurs moved and communicated and all the effects were perfect! Not only was the live show a spectacular sight but it was an informative evening as well.

Palaeontologist Mr. Stone takes audiences on a trip to a land called Pangea; when the Earth existed with only one continent. We witnessed how life was for herbivores when they were gathering food, protecting their young and how they defended themselves when they became prey. But eventually, you see the land begins to shift and several continents are created. Walking With Dinosaurs does a spectacular job of showing how the dinosaurs had to adapt to the changes of the new land.

This is a show I would definitely recommend for families. As for where you want to sit, being on the first level will have you very close to the dinosaurs to reach their necks out to you but sitting on the second level does allow you to see the whole arena spectacular at once. There just isn’t a bad seat in the house. There were many young children where we were sitting and none of the lighting or sound effects (or should I say dinosaur roars), were too scary for them. The show is definitely intended for kids of all ages!

Thanks to Kids Up Front for providing us with tickets, it gave me an opportunity to take my younger brother out to a show we could both enjoy. Kids Up Front is an amazing charity, with locations all across Canada, that provide tickets to events to kids, giving them the opportunity to see a show or sporting event they might not have seen otherwise. If you are interested in learning more about them and how you can help out, you can check out their website!
