The production of this show includes new state-of-the-art technology based on the latest scientific research, such as the presence of feathers in some species. The hour and a half show shows the evolution of dinosaurs with cinematic realism: species interact with each other, carnivores evolve and begin to walk on two legs, and herbivores learn to defend themselves against their more agile predators. Telling us about the adventures of dinosaurs in the prehistoric arena and introducing us to them will be two Italian actors, known for their numerous theatre, television and film performances. Emanuele Vezzoli e Carlo Caprioli.
Nine species will populate the stage to represent the 200 million years that dinosaurs ruled the Earth. The stars of the show will be the terrifying Tyrannosaurus Rex together with Plateosaurus and Liliensternus from the Triassic period, Stegosaurus and Allosaurus from the Jurassic period and Torosaurus and Utahraptor from the Cretaceous period. The largest of them, the Brachiosaurus, is 11 metres high and 17 metres long from nose to tail tip. It took a year and a team of 50 professionals including engineers, craftsmen, artists, painters and animatronics experts to build this impressive production.
Walking With Dinosaurs - The Arena Spectacular was originally produced in Australia by Gerry Ryan, Malcolm Cooke and Jill Bryant and saw the light of day thanks to Global Creatures.
