Overture Center for the Arts will host Rise of T. rex with Paleontologist Lindsay Zanno on Tuesday, Jan. 14 at 7:30 p.m. in the Capitol Theater. The show will explore North America’s badlands and clues in the evolution of this apex predator.
Zanno, of National Geographic Live, is head of paleontology at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences and an associate research professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at North Carolina State University. She is one of the world’s leading experts on the evolution of theropod dinosaurs.
Zanno has discovered more than a dozen new species, including Siats, one of the largest meat-eating dinosaurs on the continent, and Moros, North America’s tiniest tyrannosaur.
Tickets for the show are available here.
