A journey to the dinosaurs under the starry sky

When Celeste prepares a presentation for her class about the extinction of the dinosaurs, suddenly a gate opens to the distant history of the Earth. Together with the wise and magical figure Moon, she embarks on a spectacular time journey to the giant reptiles – and discovers that the story of the dinosaurs is far from over.

Prehistoric giants in the planetarium dome

The production combines family-friendly storytelling with an impressive planetarium atmosphere. Under the dome, the view of the current starry sky over Karlsruhe transforms into a journey through millions of years of Earth history. Scenery, projection, and acoustics create a sensory stage experience where prehistoric landscapes, massive predators, and the dynamic development of dinosaurs come alive.

Dramaturgy between adventure and knowledge

At the center is Celeste's search for answers: How did dinosaurs change over millions of years? How did enormous herbivores and feared predators arise? And what were the consequences of the catastrophic asteroid impact that triggered a mass extinction? The dramaturgy guides young audiences clearly through key chapters of Earth history without losing the magic of adventure.

The key to survival

Produced by Render Area, the event not only tells of the downfall of the dinosaurs. It also looks at their surprising legacy and the question of how life endures crises. The directing combines scientific themes with an emotional narrative, where curiosity, wonder, and the joy of discovery set the rhythm.

A family experience for young explorers

Due to technical and organizational reasons, late admission is not possible, so timely arrival is recommended. Unused tickets expire without replacement.
