the production was incredible with being very educational
I enjoyed this with my 12 year old. He was raving about it for a long time after, and I heard him recommend it to his friend.
Cool show. There wasn't a bad seat in the house for this one! They had a guy doing commentary throughout, walking around and it helped to show the size of these beasts! HUGE! T-Rex and Stegosaurus and Brachiosaur and Raptor and others. They even had one flying dino. It was really quite entertaining and educational. 200 Millions years in 90 minutes. From the first dino to the T-Rex, with mock vegetation and smoke and lights. A really cool show. It got me thinking though, Dinosaurs where on the planet for 200 million years, and pretty much left the planet the way it was when they came. It wasn't even they're fault that they died, it was a commet. Then humans come along, and in less than 5000 years, look at what we do. Makes you think. The Commentator made the show kind of cool because you're not just watching a bunch of dinosaurs walk around for 90 minutes, you are learning about them and seeing them interact (kind of). The dinosaurs were really quite cool. Realistic, HUGE as I've said. Really the closest thing we're even gonna get to seeing the real thing. I really enjoyed it. This is not just a show for kids. I'm 27 and I loved it. The music was wonderful too. Soft and epic and helped set the mode. Heck, I bought the soundtrack cause I enjoyed the music so much!
We saw the show the first time they came to Winnipeg and got opening night tickets this time around! My seven year old was in awe and barely breathed through the perfomance. We had a great time and would have no problem seeing them a thrid time.
Walking with Dinosaurs was great, took my three grandchildren and they were so excited and amazed at the sizes of the dinosaurs.
My family and I found the show very interesting and exciting. It was very well done and seemed almost realistic. It was also very educational. The Paleontologist made it fun and easy for even younger ones to follow. Would highly recommend it!! A great evening.
the paleontologist was great in his role,kept the show moving , the props were superb,though the dinosaurs lingered just abit too long in places,nice poetic language with the mother-child herbavoires,my grandson of 6 yrs old, found the very large roars just abit intimidating but very effective,the raptors mobility gave it a pseudo-life like appearance that kept the younguns enthralled...the recreations were fabulous....well worth the price.
The show wasn't what i expected. I guess i didn't think it was going to be so educational (not complaining about that). at times it seemed a little loud but the effects were pretty cool. My kids and i enjoyed it.
The show was very well done. I enjoyed the first half even more than the second. It was educational and entertaining which makes it appropriate for all ages. If you bring young kids I would recommend ear protection for a few parts.
It was the BEST venue that I have ever seen at the MTS Centre.
Walking with Dinosaurs was totally awesome!! The Dinosaurs were so lifelike, even the plants and flowers are something to see.
Took my grandchildren - we loved it - they looked so real it made you feel like you were alive during their time here on earth - would highly recommend this show - amazing - would love the opportunity to see behind the scenes. Host deserves lots of credit - he is very good.
I found the Walking with Dinosaurs to be exceptionally done...the dinosaurs looked real...the set design was awesome...the actions & movements of the dinosaurs were very well done...would see it again, for sure!!
This show exceeded my expectations in every way! It was obvious that both children and adults were amazed and awed by these magnificient creatures. The life-sized dinosaurs were realistic enough to make you forget you were sitting inside an arena... the show was exciting, entertaining, but never too frightening for the younger audience members. My kids, ages 10 and 12, loved it as well. We hope to have the opportunity to see this show again in the future!
It really was a fabulous production, the dinosaurs were unbelievably life like! I enjoyed every moment with my 4-year old son and would take him again.
This show was unforgettable!! My 5 yrs old son actually thought that the dinosaures were alive ... Congrats on making the show so realistic and educational at the same time! The use of technology, lights, video background and soundtracks made it even more incredible! We trully enjoyed the show! Thanks for a great evening out with my son!
What a thrill for the kids! It was great seeing their eyes light up with anticipation. ...a great "first show" for them at the MTS Centre!
It was amazing seeing these huge creatures "come to life" . The experience was astonishing for old and young. The dinosaurs were fantastically done and oh so realistic :D
It was an awesome show. My dad and I and two of my girls aged 9 & 6 went and we were kept in awe of the experience. It was almost indescribeable the looks on their face when the dinosaurs came out and did there thing. Funny enough when I came home and described it to my teen , who hadn't wanted to go, she informed me that I was acting like a child and asked if she could go next time. It was educational and entertaining!! The kids left amused and interested in what they had just discovered. They had not been big dino fans previous to the show but left begging for dino fact books. All in All it was faboulous ...Great for any age from young to old , We all had the best time.
Walking with Dinosaurs was amazing! My children were awestruck and my husband and I were suitably impressed. Well thought out and very engaging! We would definitely see it again.
