Something — or someone — has stolen the Madness, the spark that makes Wonderland wonderful. The guests have ninety minutes to work out who took it.

Molly is twelve, and her little brother Joe is six. One day, Grandma didn’t wake up – and now Mum can’t stop crying. So Molly becomes a Supergirl again. She cooks, she washes the dishes, she gets Joe ready for school. Supergirl can do everything. Supergirl doesn’t cry. But being Supergirl doesn’t feel much like being a kid anymore. 

Now that Mum is finally starting to feel better, maybe things can go back to normal. They can’t turn back time, but they can face their worries together.

Instead of viewing static museum displays or watching creatures on a screen, families get to experience what it feels like to stand in the presence of living prehistoric giants.

The main highlight of the show is the sheer scale and realism of the creatures. The production features a lineup of 15 dinosaurs, including the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Triceratops, Stegosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Suchomimus, Allosaurus, Utahraptor, and Dakotaraptor.

Because the dinosaurs move freely throughout the space, children and parents can see their scale and movements from a remarkably close distance.

While the non-verbal format is easy for children of all ages to follow, these life-sized dinosaurs move close to the audience and roar dynamically. If you have younger toddlers who are sensitive to loud noises or large moving figures, booking Category 3 or Category 4 seats slightly further back provides a full view of the stage while keeping the experience comfortable.

Tickets will be available on SISTIC and Klook from 3 Sep 2026, 12pm with early bird discounts of 10% off till 9 Sep 2026.
