Last night I had the honor of seeing “Walking with Dinosaurs”. A spectacular show! If anyone has the opportunity to see it, I suggest going. Besides the excellent theatrics, lighting, and music, there was a great deal of science. It was more scientifically based than I expected, honestly. For most adults and, of course, children, there is plenty to learn.
The show began by taking the audience back in time, hundreds of Millions of years. An awe inspiring photo of earth from space is seen on the giant screen. The earth is shown with not seven, but one continent, Pangaea. The show takes the audience on an incredible journey “observing” Dinosaurs in their “natural” environment. Dinosaurs from Brachiosaurus’ to Tyrannosaurus Rexes towered and roared before us. They were incredibly realistic.
I truly believe the show does a great service to the science community by not only bringing the past to life, but also inspiring young children to think “science”.
