Family rock musical for ages three and above adapted from the best-selling children's books by Tom Fletcher and Dougie Poynter.
The Dinosaur That Pooped comes to the Regent Theatre on Saturday 13 March 2027, with two shows that day: a matinee at 12:30pm and another at 3:30pm. It's a musical for the whole family, adapted from the best-selling children's books by Tom Fletcher and Dougie Poynter, two members of McFly. The stage version is called The Dinosaur That Pooped - A Rock Show!.
If you've read the books, the story will be familiar: Dino is a dinosaur who poops so much that he produces an endless number of extraordinary adventures, from journeys to other planets to trips back in time. But the stage show isn't a direct retelling. It's a brand-new story: when Danny and Dino's favourite rock band announce their last ever concert, the pair set out on a quest to get the final two tickets, with a villainous band manager standing in their way. The show runs for around an hour and is suitable for ages three and above, so it's one of those things you can take the little ones to without worrying about them getting restless.
The songs are written by Fletcher and Poynter themselves, specifically for the show, and the whole thing is produced by Mark Thompson Productions Limited and directed by Miranda Larson. Fletcher is no stranger to the West End; he also composed Paddington the Musical, which picked up seven Olivier Awards. The Stoke-on-Trent date is part of a UK tour that also takes in Birmingham and Manchester.
