Larger-than-life creatures, dazzling electroluminescent puppetry, entrancing movement, and an epic dinosaur lightsaber battle set the tone for this mesmerizing tale. After being created by a caring scientist, Darwin the Dinosaur’s animal instincts eventually take over. As Darwin sets off to explore life, he encounters many types of creatures and learns the value of both good and bad, love and hate, friends and enemies. What Darwin takes from these life lessons is up to him, and only he can decide his fate. Darwin’s incredible journey to discover the true meaning of love makes this an illuminating production brimming with heart.
