Children’s Theatre Company (CTC) is delighted to announce the complete cast and creative team for Dinosaur World Live, the prehistoric journey that has dazzled theatregoers of all ages worldwide. Dinosaur World Live will run from March 3-April 5, 2026, on the UnitedHealth Group Stage. Opening night is Friday, March 6, 2026, at 7pm. Dinosaur World Live is written and directed by Derek Bond (Sweet Charity, Manchester Theatre Awards 2017 winner, Little Shop of Horrors Manchester Royal Exchange), and produced by Nicoll Entertainment.

“Dinosaur World Live brings together everything we love at CTC—imagination, adventure, and theatrical artistry that ignites curiosity,” said Rick Dildine, CTC Artistic Director. “The show’s blend of spectacular puppetry and hands-on storytelling invites young people to lean in, marvel, and discover. We can’t wait for families to experience the thrill of seeing these magnificent prehistoric creatures come to life right in front of them.”

“We are so excited to be bringing Dinosaur World Live to CTC,” said writer and director Derek Bond. “We’ve heard that there are lots of young people in Minneapolis who just love dinosaurs, so we’re sending my friend Miranda and some of her dino-friends to come and meet you. She might even need your help with some of the dinosaurs!”
