Museum of Science 'T-Rex named Sue' play
by
The Museum of Science, Boston did a play to accompany the exhibit. It focused on the stories from Sue's life and expeditions. It was a one person show which put the audience into the role of people who have signed on for an amateur dig out west. The narrator character is a dig guide. The action of the piece was set around a competition to find something before a dig led by Sue got something. It was quite fun. You could improvise on this idea to create your own show. I will say that I felt like the MOS script suffered from too many writers ( a few of us worked together), but If you want to look at the script, contact Dan Dowling at ddowling@mos.org.
