WALKING WITH DINOSAURS – The Live Experience is brought to North America by The Creature Production Company, headed by CEO Carmen Pavlovic. “The BBC Series was a brilliant blend of special effects, escapism, excitement and information. Our show brings together all of that, plus something extra – it’s live!” said Pavlovic. “In this production, fifteen roaring, snarling ‘live’ dinosaurs mesmerize the audience – and are as awe-inspiring as when they first walked on earth.”
“The dinosaurs are life-size, making the show so immense, it could only fit in arenas. It’s a $20 million arena spectacle of unprecedented size and quality, which captivates young and old alike,” Pavlovic continued. “With WALKING WITH DINOSAURS – The Live Experience, we really believe we have created a new genre in entertainment and we hope to continue to bring new product to arenas for years to come.”
WALKING WITH DINOSAURS – The Live Experience has sold out performances and broken records in arenas all over America, generating more than $50 million in ticket sales to date. It has been seen on “The Today Show,” “Good Morning America,” “Live with Regis and Kelly,” and written about in Newsweek, The New York Times, the Christian Science Monitor and the Wall Street Journal. The show was also the subject of a Discovery Channel “Really Big Things” episode and a video clue category on “Jeopardy.”
