Leeds Playhouse

Have you ever wondered what a dinosaur might do in a day? Or what they actually looked like? What colour were they? Were they really green like they are in the movies?

Dr Jakob Vinther, the famous paleontologist, changed the world with his mind-blowing scientific discovery when he figured out what colour dinosaurs actually were. Now Dr Jakob swaps the lab for the stage alongside 5 musicians, who through catchy tunes and soaring stories, learn all about Jakob’s roarsome discovery! 

The Colour of Dinosaurs brings the story of Jakob’s extraordinary science to life and celebrate everyone’s identities, including disability, cultural identity, and of course, how much we all love dinosaurs! 

An Unlimited UK Partner Award 2023 commission with Polka Theatre with support from Bristol Old Vic and Paraorchestra. Created by Otic and Lloyd Coleman.
