Walking With Dinosaurs at the Xcel Energy Center

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
Plateosaurus and Liliensternus from the Triassic period, the Stegosaurus and Allosaurus from the Jurassic period and Torosaurus and Utahraptor from the awesome Cretaceous. The largest of them, the Brachiosaurus is 36 feet tall, and 56 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.
Variety said, “The dinosaurs are stunning, life-size and faultlessly nimble. In act one, the
beasts parade into the arena gnashing and cavorting as a safari-suited paleontologist describes
their attributes … in the second half, the action cranks up, culminating in a spectacular clash as a
T-Rex mom defends her baby from predators. Sonny Tilders' triumphant creature design ensures
‘Walking With Dinosaurs’ is a truly spectacular spectacular. It is everything a dino-phile could
want.”
