65 million years ago, dinosaurs ruled the earth... 30 years ago, a movie about dinosaurs ruled the box office... This year, you are invited to… Hold On To Your Butts Following its critically acclaimed West End and Off-Broadway debuts, the smash hit show goes on tour! In this laugh-out-loud stage sensation, two fearless actors and a Foley artist perform a live, shot-for-shot parody of the greatest dinosaur film of all time. A wildly inventive tour-de-force of razor-sharp comedy, physical theatre and ingenious sound effects. Fast, funny, and packed with jaw‑dropping creativity, it’s a non‑stop thrill ride! ★★★★★ “A non-stop laugh fest” -Theatre Weekly ★★★★★ “A chaotic masterpiece” -Stage to Page ★★★★ “A funny, head-spinning Jurassic Park parody” -The Times CRITIC’S PICK “Painfully funny ... made us cry actual tears of laughter ... a pure joy from start to finish” -Time Out “It’s the hit of the Fringe” -Scottish Daily Mail What is a Foley artist? Using an arsenal of props, foley artists devise and record the everyday sounds heard in films, television shows, and video games - noises like footsteps, a sword being drawn from a sheath, or the swishing of clothing as two people walk past each other. Foley artists are keen observers and sensitive listeners, exceptionally tuned into the world of sound and motion, and able to think in creative, innovative ways about sonic reproduction. – From Berklee School of Music
