The ocean is rising, a meteor might hit…but more importantly, your macchiato is too hot.

The World According to Dinosaurs is an interrogation of globalism through the lens ofpalaeontology, world events and what we had for dinner last night. A culmination of the stories we tell ourselves about existence. Fact, fiction, wives’ tales, white lies, myths, learntbehaviours, common misconceptions – it’s all part of the human narrative.

Frenzy Theatre Co presents a work of physical theatrical grandeur that journeys across genre and time.

“Sixty-five minutes of glorious mayhem.” The Blurb

“The actors have so much fun with the content, which the audience laps up. Individually and collectively, the former are memorable.” – J-Wire

“Everything about (Frenzy’s work) is impressive. It is a huge effort, involving ingenuity and talent … and it is hilarious.” – I’ll Tell You What I Think

Content Warnings: Flashing lights and sudden loud noises. Minor sexual references, some coarse language and mild mature themes including evolution and extinction.
