Dinosaur Train Live! Buddy’s Big Adventure brings the stars of the hit PBS series to Omaha for the first time. Children can join Buddy, Tiny, King, Don and more in an interactive and immersive live trip back in time to an age when dinosaurs roamed the earth....and rode in trains. The show utilizes projected backgrounds and vistas, magical special effects, a full-sized replica of the Dinosaur Train, unique hybrid puppeteered costume characters and a live host to make the original, musical story come to life.
               In Dinosaur Train Live!, Little Buddy is a Tyrannosaurus Rex living in the Pteranodon family nest. When Buddy questions what makes him a part of the family, the Pteranodons decide to hop aboard the Dinosaur Train on an adventure across the Mesozoic to introduce Buddy to King Cryolophosaurus. King turns up missing, and he’s due to perform at a concert. Will Buddy and the gang be able to find him in time for his concert? And will Buddy discover what makes him special and such an important part of the Pteranodon family? 
           “This will absolutely be a ‘wow’ show for kids where they can feel like they’ve been transported to Buddy’s amazing world and can go on an adventure with him and his friends,” said John Tartaglia, director and producer, and Michael Shawn Lewis, producer and co-creator. “It will be chock-full of music, laughs and effects that families will love experiencing together. We hope kids will be having such a great time they won't even realize all of the science concepts they're learning!”
