TV characters come to life these holidays

Young children will be treated to regular 30-minute live shows featuring Mister Maker and Ben 10 from their favourite DStv kids’ shows.

Ben 10, the popular character from Ben 10 Omniverse on Cartoon Network (DStv channel 301), will be appearing in the multimedia stage show Top Secret Plumbers’ Academy from 28 June to 1 July.

During four live shows each day, children can witness the exploits of this courageous cartoon hero alongside several other cool characters, performing amazing acrobatic stunts as they take on aliens. This show is recommended for children aged four to 12.

Having fun creatively is the name of the game with Mister Maker from CBeebies, who will perform four live 30-minute stage shows every day from 2 to 5 July and three shows on the final day of the DStv Kids’ Xtravaganza.

CBeebies favourite making-man Mister Maker is a global phenomenon with a dedicated following of mini makers. Fun, inspirational and very good with his hands,

Mister Maker has bright ideas for art from everything around him, making objects and pictures magically come to life. Mister Maker proves that anyone can be creative by demonstrating how easy and satisfying it is to have hands-on, artistic fun.
