Dora the Explorer musical is coming to Joburg

JOBURG - Nickelodeon DStv channel 305 has teamed up with Life Like Touring, a company which brings live family entertainment to the world, and Blu Blood Entertainers, a company which offers intimate theatre experiences and manages a variety of shows, to bring cartoon character and pre-school heroine Dora the Explorer and her friends to South Africa this winter.

 

Dora the Explorer Live! Dora’s Pirate Adventure will be hosted at Emperors Palace from 7 to 10 July.

Families and kids are invited to join Dora and her friends, Boots and Diego, on a voyage of discovery as they embark on an exciting trip to Treasure Island in search of the ultimate pirate party. They navigate over the dancing mountain and through the Silly Singing Bridge in pursuit of the pirate piggies.

Dora the Explorer fans will use their map-reading, counting, musical and language skills to successfully help Dora reach Treasure Island and avoid the pesky fox, Swiper.

In a statement, Thomas Kingsley, senior manager of recreation business development at Nickelodeon said, “We are pleased to partner with Life Like Touring to bring their new production of Dora’s Pirate Adventure to audiences in South Africa. The Dora Live! productions continue to engage fans of Nickelodeon’s TV show, while introducing children to the experience of live theatre.”

Managing director of Blu Blood Entertainers, Osman Osman said, “We are pleased to partner with Life Like Touring and Nickelodeon in this new stage production of Dora’s Pirate Adventure. The show has travelled around the globe, and we are thrilled to add South Africa to the list of countries that Dora has visited on her latest adventure.”

The show will also be at the ICC in Durban from 30 June to 3 July and at the Grand West Casino in Cape Town from 14 to 17 July.
