A musical based on a highly popular children's book series will come to Cumbria.

'The Dinosaur That Pooped a Rock Show', adapted from the best-selling series of books by Tom Fletcher and Dougie Poynter, will be performed at The Sands Centre in Carlisle on October 4, 2025.

The premise follows Danny and Dino's quest to get the last two tickets for their favourite rock band's last-ever concert - but with a villainous band manager lurking, nothing goes to plan.

The 'Dinosaur That Pooped' series has become a notable fixture in contemporary children's literature, and is hugely popular with young children.

Featuring the antics of Danny and his pet dinosaur, the books blend whimsical rhyming text with humour and generally follow the dinosaur’s unconventional way of solving problems through its enormous appetite and equally dramatic bowel movements.

Tickets cost £17.05 for a child and £18.15 for an adult and are available at https://betterboxoffice.co.uk/.
