Something for you to discover at Kansas City’s Union Station:  City Stage.  TYA (Theatre for Young America) just launched their 2010-2011 season with “The Dinosaur Play” and you can catch it now thru November 6, 2010.  Our friends at Union Station have been generous enough to give us 10 sets of four passes to an upcoming performance of “The Dinosaur Play” –on Thursday October 28^th at 10 a.m.  The tickets are good for this date and time only.  Enter by leaving a comment below:  WHAT HALLOWEEN COSTUMES WILL YOUR KIDS BE WEARING THIS YEAR??

This audience-participation play takes its young audience back to a world millions and millions of years ago into the last age of the dinosaurs. In front of the young audience is a magnificent dinosaur egg, gently tapping out a call for help. Banding together, the children work to interpret what the egg is saying and help it hatch. Soon Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus Rex join the action, and a great mystery-adventure is set in motion.

If you were able to take your kids to see “Dinosaurs Unearthed”– what a great tie-in!  If you didn’t get to the exhibit yet, no worries. It’s been extended until January 9, 2011!  If you’d like to see some pictures, a video and a recounting of our exhibit sneak peak, click here!

You have until 6am Wednesday morning (October 27, 2010) to enter. Randomly-selected winners (all 10!) will be announced by 9am on Wednesday.  Good luck!  You can click here to go directly to the ticket purchasing site for the performance, too.
