The Great Big Dinosaur Show

Join poet Simon Mole and musician Gecko for a family show full of poems, raps and songs about all your favourite prehistoric protagonists (and some you haven’t heard of yet!). Come and get your groove on to some Jurassic Classics!

The show is inspired by Simon Mole’s 4th book; A First Book of Dinosaurs, illustrated by Matt Hunt, published by Walker Books in September 2023.

All audience members are invited to bring a sock of any size or colour to become part of our sauropod sock herd! We advise these being additional socks to the ones you will be wearing on your feet…
