The Biopark is temporarily hosting Janus, a unique two-headed Greek tortoise, during the renovation of the Museum. Each head of this male tortoise has its own independent brain, which sometimes makes its movements challenging. In captivity, Janus receives attentive care, resulting in an impressive lifespan of 26 years.

What if the dinosaurs missed Noah’s Ark—not because of a meteorite, but because a sundial was thrown off by the clouds? In this whimsical yet thought-provoking opera, Charles Darwin and his beloved Galápagos iguana travel through time to give dinosaurs a second chance. Boarding a fantastical ship, the creatures set off in search of a magical plant that might transform them into birds and save them from the Flood.
Part satire, part tender fable, Les Dinos et l’Arche brings together humans, animals, and extinct species in a distorted mirror of our own changing society. Through absurd dialogues, wild transformations, and a swirl of humor and emotion, the opera reminds us that survival often demands reinvention.
Directed by Julien Condemine, with musical direction by Leonardo García-Alarcón, and performed by a vibrant cast and a ten-piece ensemble, this visually daring and musically rich production draws on baroque influences to speak to curious minds of all ages.
Kids ages 10 and up.
