Dinosaurs return to the earth in Walking With Dinosaurs – The Live Experience, based on the award-winning BBC Television Series. After playing for ten sold-out weeks in five cities in Australia, where it was seen by an audience of over 300,000, Walking With Dinosaurs- The Live Experience now comes to North America for a two-year arena tour and will perform seven performances at Scottrade Center.

The show is approximately 90 minutes long, not including a short intermission.

Tickets are $79.50, $69.50, $49.50 and $39.50 and may be purchased at the Scottrade Center Box Office, all Ticketmaster Ticket Centers, by phone at 314-241-1888 for an automated line or 314-421-4400 or 618-222-2900 for sales rep, or online at ticketmaster.com.

Ten species are represented from the entire 200 million year reign of the dinosaurs. The show includes the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the terror of the ancient terrain, as well as the Plesiosaurus and Liliensternus from the Triassic period, the Stegosaurus and Allosaurus from the Jurassic period and the awesome Cretaceous. The largest of them, the Brachiosaurus is 45 feet tall, and 75 feet from nose to tail. It took a team of 50 – including engineers, fabricators, skin makers, artists and painters, and animatronic experts – a year to build the original production.

Audiences seated in the lower seats are all but overwhelmed by the dinosaurs, while those seated in higher seats view the entire spectacle and panorama of the production.

The show depicts the dinosaurs’ evolution, complete with the climatic and tectonic changes that took place allowing them to survive for so long. With almost cinematic realism, Walking With Dinosaurs has scenes of the interactions between dinosaurs, and the audience sees how carnivorous dinosaurs evolved to walk on two legs, and how the herbivores fended off their more agile predators.

The history of the world is played out with the splitting of the earth’s continents, and the transition from the arid desert of the Triassic period is given over to the lush green prairies and forces of the later Jurassic. Oceans form, volcanoes erupt, a forest catches fire — all leading to the massive comet, which struck the earth, and forced the extinction of the dinosaurs.

Our camera policy defines professional lens cameras as a camera with a lens greater than 200 mm. A camera with a lens greater than 200 mm will never be allowed at Scottrade Center.
