Family live show that takes audiences back 100,000 years to the Ice Age to meet cavemen, Neanderthals and a woolly mammoth.
Ice Age Adventure Live comes to the Derby Theatre on Friday 26 March 2027, a family show that takes you back 100,000 years to the frozen world of the Ice Age. It's produced by Red Entertainment, written by Edward Johnson and directed by Mike Newman Jnr.
The story follows a group of fearless explorers trekking through snow-packed valleys, outwitting sabre-toothed surprises and befriending cavemen and Neanderthals along the way. There's a bit of a mission to it too: they're helping to save a woolly mammoth and even bringing back an extinct dodo. The show runs for 80 minutes including an interval, and after it's finished, there's a chance to meet a polar bear up close.
One thing to keep in mind before you book: the performance contains flashing lights and haze, so it's worth knowing that if you're bringing anyone who might find them a bit much. The show is billed as 'The Coolest Show on Earth', which fits the whole prehistoric ice world it builds around you.
