Synopsis

It is the end of the Cretaceous period.

A giant meteor collides with the earth and wreaks havoc with the ecosystem.

In order to avoid extinction, the Dinosaurs sign a peace pact called the Treaty of Meat.

For a time there is peace between the Carnivores and the Herbivores.

But when the wise King of the Tyrannosauruses suddenly dies and his none-too-clever thirteen-year-old son, Quincy, rises to power, trouble begins.

King Quincy leads the Tyrannosauruses on a terrible rampage.

Carlotta Devries, a Parasaurolophus singing star, and her thirteen-year-old daughter, Mindy, narrowly escape Quincy s forces and take refuge at Swifty s Volcano Caf

Press Reviews

"A winning and delightful family show.” —Philadelphia Inquirer ”THE DINOSAUR MUSICAL is a rare treat—a family musical that really can entertain the whole family. It's a show written with young children in mind that does not talk down to its audience. It works on several levels—it's a cute story about dinosaurs for youngsters; a 'girl power' story to appeal to teenagers; and a musical comedy with lots of wit to appeal to adults.”  —Talkin' Broadway ”A charming, irreverent and highly amusing romp. This show is a trippy little musical comedy, full of visual gags, witty word play and some nice tunes. And it's not like anything else you've seen."

— Kansas City Star
