‘Bluey’ comes to Bristol
Bluey is a global cultural phenomenon.
Now touring internationally with the first official theatrical adaptation of the Australian animated dog family’s escapades, Bluey’s Big Play is a show aimed at the youngest of audiences, and – of course – their families.
Because as fans of the Heelers will testify, there aren’t many other children’s TV shows that will reliably bring their parents to tears over the course of every single seven-minute episode.

Joe Brumm is the creator of the multi-award-winning series, and also the writer of this 50-minute show, which is scored by the familiar and evocative compositions of Joff Bush.
Audiences can expect a simple and irresistible story, characteristic humour, and the emotional gut punch that the world’s favourite cartoon canine family can be relied upon to provide.
Bluey’s Big Play is at Bristol Hippodrome from August 15-18; times vary. Tickets are available at www.atgtickets.com.
