Humanity is facing its greatest threat yet - the threat of extinction, of having made its own existence impossible. What are we going to do with our lives while we wait to die? Malmö Dockteater digs up the dinosaurs, brings them to life and asks them for advice in an existential and humorous puppet show by and with the Danish performance collective PERSONA NON GRATA.

Dinosaur World is a performative puppet show for adults, exploring the encounter between dinosaur and human, between being alive and becoming extinct as a species. The show is created using a mixture of foam, ready-mades, video, robots and sound worlds.
