The show that has been delighting wide-eyed children across the country is back, bringing dinosaurs to the Kent stage.

Dinosaur Zoo, for ages three and older, has spent the spring and summer bringing puppet prowess to hundreds of children.

The show has an impressive cast of prehistoric creatures, including the scariest of them all – the tyrannosaurus rex

From cute baby dinos to teeth-gnashing giants, there’s also a moment when intrepid audience members can brave getting up close and personal with the dinosaurs.

The night ends with a post-show 'meat and greet' session offering everyone the chance to meet the dinosaurs.

Directed by Scott Wright, the show, at Dartford’s Orchard Theatre, is from the Australia-based Erth Company, on Sunday, July 24 to Tuesday, July 26.
