Imagine the bones and fossils of ancient dinosaurs could come back to life - what stories they might tell. Well, here's no need to imagine any more as Rainbow Puppet Productions presents 'The Really BIG Dinosaur Show.' Through original songs and the use of over 20 giant puppets, the time of the dinosaurs appears on stage. The program features an eight-foot-tall T-Rex and another dinosaur that's over 16 feet long. (It's not called 'The Really Big Dinosaur Show' for nothing!) There will be lots of audience participation and children will be brought on stage to help operate some of the dinosaur puppets. The program was created by the same team that produced 'The Amazing Adventures of Chessie the Manatee.' The original music and script is by David Messick. Giant puppets were created by Frank Lakus of Tampa, Florida as well as Virginia artists Laura Huff, Helen Spaetzel, Christine Frank, and Kathie Davis. Technical advice on the T-Rex was provided by world famous paleontologist Dr. John Horner, who is probably best known to the public for his work as technical consultant to Steven Spielburg's 'Jurassic Park' and 'The Lost World.'
