Mammoth amount of fun

Hudson Vagabond Puppets presents “Mammoth Follies” at On Stage at Kingsborough Community College on Oct. 4.

“Mammoth Follies” explores the great age of the dinosaur in an old-fashioned revue of original songs, witty jokes, and earth-smashing dances.

Enormous dinosaur puppets populate the stage, including host-with-the-most Willie Mammoth, Smiley the Saber-Toothed Tiger, Bessie the lovable 27-foot long Apatosaurus, Tony and Trixie Triceratops, Terry the Pterodactyl, and the 11-foot tall T. Rex in a musical trip through pre-history.

“Mammoth Follies” on Oct. 4 at 2 pm; tickets are $12.

On Stage at Kingsborough Community College [2001 Oriental Blvd. at Oxford Street in Manhattan Beach, (718) 368–5596, www.onstageatkingsborough.org].
