Religion, identity, sex...and raptors! Triassic Parq is a raucous retelling of that famous dinosaur-themed film, this time seen from the dinos' point of view. Chaos is unleashed upon the not-so-prehistoric world when one dinosaur in a clan of females spontaneously turns male. The mutation spawns a chain reaction of identity crises, forcing the dinosaurs to question the very facts of life they've always held as truth. An uproariously funny musical meditation on faith, science, and love.

Published Reviews

"Flat-out ingenious. Shameless and priceless."

The New York Times

"As tearfully funny as Book of Mormon with twice the accessibility, this musical explores sexuality, religion and science with a roaring disregard of self-dignity."

Metro New York

"Low-brow and brilliant!"

New York Magazine

"Monstrously funny...will leave you higher than a flock of pterodactyls."

Time Out New York

"A laugh riot from start to finish. And underneath the surface yuks is a surprisingly thoughtful, progressive musical. It's downright infectious."

BroadwayWorld

"A miracle of theater magic. Comic gold, imbued with real emotion and depth; it's bound to become a cult classic along the same lines as Rocky Horror and Urinetown."

OC Weekly

"Bracingly dirty and surprisingly poignant, courting laughter with broad physical comedy, and conveying the pathos of the dinosaurs' struggles to find love and friendship."

Los Angeles Times

"Terrific and energetic...it's one of the funniest [shows] you'll ever see, if you can hear it over the howls of laughter from the audience."

Associated Press

"One of the most entertaining youth-culture musicals in years."

The New Yorker
