Darwin is not your typical pet. In fact, he's a dinosaur who discovers the true meaning of love in this heart-rending tale. When Darwin's animal instincts take over, he finds himself on an expedition far from home. In his numerous encounters, Darwin meets many different types of creatures, learning the value of good and bad, love and hate, friends and enemies. What Darwin takes from these life lessons are up to him, and only he can decide his fate.
The crayon-like characters in this glowing fantasy world are brought to life with flexible electroluminescent wires in a blackout setting with a score featuring orchestral and pop music. Darwin has been created by CORBIAN Visual Arts and Dance.
Stay after the performance for a post show Q&A with the artists and actors.
Recommended for ages 7 and up.
