Don’t get too close to the life-sized, walking T-Rex at the Puppetry Arts Festival of Brooklyn on June 28.
The dynamo dino will thrill festival-goers at the fun, family event that helps raise funds to support free cultural programs in area schools and youth shelters.
Puppet shows, a special performance by Yellow Sneakers, James Kent, Arlee Chadwick, and Charlie Kanev, along with a very special appearance by Tuffy Tiger putting on his new interactive staged show, “Tuffy’s Great Adventure,” entertain visitors.
Adding more thrills and chills, the Dino troubadour from Field Station, Dinosaurs of New Jersey’s Meadowlands will be making a special trip over the river to introduce a breathing, 15-foot juvenile T-Rex in an interactive, entertaining and surprising paleozoic adventure for all.
