FIRST TIME IN SA! BLUEY’S BIG PLAY THE STAGE SHOW
Hit theatre show Bluey’s Big Play makes it’s African debut in the 2025 Winter school holidays

Wackadoo! Bluey, Bingo, Mum and Dad are coming to South Africa! For the first time ever, the hit theatre production Bluey’s Big Play The Stage Show makes its African debut at Artscape, Cape Town and then moves to The Teatro at Montecasino, Johannesburg.

Bluey’s Big Play is a theatrical adaptation of the BAFTA and Emmy® Award-winning animated children’s television series. Now families in South Africa can experience the joy of seeing Bluey, Bingo, Mum and Dad in their first ever theatre show, featuring brilliantly created puppets, iconic sets, live actors and all-new music – it’s Bluey like you’ve never seen it before, in real life and on stage.

Bluey’s Big Play follows Bluey and her family through a full day from sunrise through to bedtime. When Dad feels like a little bit of Sunday afternoon time out, Bluey and Bingo have other plans! Join them as they pull out all of the games and cleverness at their disposal to get Dad off that bean bag.

The stage show has enjoyed much success around the world, touring internationally across the UK and Ireland, Singapore, Abu Dhabi, Europe, North America and Australia, where it was nominated for an Olivier Award for Best Family Show in 2024.

On TV, Bluey has enjoyed a plethora of critical success, winning a 2022 BAFTA Children & Young People Award in the International category, a 2024 Kidscreen Award for Best Animated Series, a fifth consecutive AACTA Best Children’s Programme award and an International Emmy —along with numerous awards for craft and production around the world.
In South Africa, Bluey is ranked #1 on Disney Channel, Disney Junior and CBeebies.
