Nothing captures the imagination like dinosaurs.

The near-mythical creatures that walked the earth long, long ago inspired the first drawings on cave walls, legendary dragon stories, some of the greatest movie music ever — and now a Houston Symphony show even bigger than the Patagotitan mayorum Titanosaur.

In other words, this is a big deal.

This show is for kiddos who love T-Rexes and Triceratops, for grown-ups who love to get a little Jurassic, and for classical music lovers who are already thinking about their favorite compositions about mythical creatures. The Houston Symphony is thrilled to overwhelm you with the power and wonder of dinosaurs and transport us all back to When Instruments Roamed the Earth.

This special event will also feature Hats off to Reading, celebrating the joy of books, curiosity, and imagination.
