Dinosaurs will be roaring back to life in Manchester - as the family-friendly Jurassic Live tour starts in the city at the weekend. The new show, featuring award-winning animatronic and realistic dinosaurs, takes over the Opera House on Saturday and Sunday before heading out on tour across the UK.
Families heading along can expect a 90-minute full stage production which will feature professional puppeteers and what promise to be "mind-blowing special effects".
Set to be an "educational and fun show", Jurassic Live features an array of terrifying lizards from the Mesozoic era. It includes what is billed as the UK’s only flying Pterodactyl alongside a Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus and Apatosaurus, the UK's biggest Tyrannosaurus Rex and the UK'S most realistic Triceratops and Velociraptor.
