Bluey’s Big Play is a theatrical adaptation of the Emmy Award®-winning children’s television series, with an original story by “Bluey” creator Joe Brumm, and new music by “Bluey” composer Joff Bush. Join the Heelers in their first live theatre show made just for you, featuring brilliantly created puppets. This is Bluey as you’ve never seen it before, brought to real life. Bluey’s Big Play is presented by BBC Studios and Andrew Kay in association with Windmill Theatre Co.
“The life-size characters, special lighting effects and live audience in the theater setting create a unique and memorable experience,” Kate Fletcher with Macaroni Kid, Bingham explained. “I thoroughly enjoyed watching my kids' eyes light up and smiles stretch across their faces throughout the performance.”
“Bluey,” the well-known children’s TV show, teaches its viewers all about emotions, especially the big, complex ones. Ultimately, the play talks about children wanting to play with their parents, while the parents are on their phones instead. Another important element to this story includes an impactful lesson about being a good sibling.
“There are a few jokes parents will appreciate,” Tim Jonze with The Guardian said. “But this show – with its wacky dances, call-and-response segments and characters running into each other – is aimed squarely at the kids.”
