Superbolt Theatre is back with its most jaw-dropping show to date, a ground-breaking take on Jurassic Park, following hit Edinburgh shows, a sell-out run at VAULT Festival 2015 and spectacular international tours.

The audience is greeted by an increasingly dysfunctional family: Terry and his two reluctant teenage children, Noah and Jade. Everything has been carefully prepared and the people of Lyme Regis are buzzing. The event? A public screening of their favourite childhood film. A last chance for a fractured family to honour their palaeontologist mother.

A technical hiccup forces our three hosts to dig deep within themselves and present their own retelling of the dino-tastic epic. The piece shifts from the film to reality, past and present using physical comedy, music, puppetry and a healthy scoop of blockbuster mania.

As this impromptu performance unfolds, family feuds are faced with the rapturous roar of DIY dinosaurs. This laugh-out-loud spin on Spielberg's classic is a theatrical celebration of cinematic nostalgia and a moving reminder of the ones we love.

WHEN YOU COME FACE TO FACE WITH THE PAST, REMEMBER NOT TO SCREAM

Superbolt Theatre is an international company founded at the Jacques Lecoq Theatre School in Paris. Their work tours internationally, playing to people of all ages and backgrounds.
