The hit theatre show Bluey’s Big Play will tour Spain, Paris and Luxembourg following critical acclaim in Australia, the UK, Ireland and North America. 

For the first time ever, hit theatre show Bluey’s Big Play will visit Europe following sell-out shows across Australia, the UK, Ireland and North America.

Bluey’s Big Play, a brand-new theatrical adaptation of the BAFTA and Emmy award-winning children’s television series produced by Ludo Studio, will hit the stage across Spain (under the name of El show de Bluey) as well as Paris and Luxembourg (under the name Bluey le spectacle).

Audiences of all ages will get to see Bluey, Bingo, and Mum and Dad, Bandit and Chilli as they’ve never seen them before, as the Heeler family embarks on its first live theatre show featuring brilliantly created puppets and iconic sets. Based on an original new story written by Bluey creator Joe Brumm, the theatrical adaptation contains new music by Bluey composer, Joff Bush.

Kate O’Connor, director of Brands and Licensing BBC Studios ANZ, said: “Following the incredible reaction to the live theatre show in the US, UK and Ireland and Australia, we are so excited to bring Bluey’s Big Play The Stage Show to fans across Europe in Spain, Paris and Luxembourg.”

Bluey’s Big Play The Stage Show is presented by BBC Studios and Andrew Kay in association with Windmill Theatre Co.

“We’re thrilled to be bringing Bluey’s Big Play The Stage Show to Spain, Paris and Luxembourg this year and next,” said director Rosemary Myers of Windmill Theatre Company. “The response to the show from fans across Australia, the US and the UK and Ireland has been nothing short of amazing and we can’t wait for families in Europe to experience all the fun and excitement of having Bluey and her family on stage live in their city.”

The stage show has enjoyed much success in Australia, where it premiered in Bluey’s hometown, Brisbane, and went on to perform 447 times across 65 venues, including the Sydney Opera House. The tour is currently in North America, where it premiered at the Hulu Theatre at Madison Square Garden in New York. The show is also currently touring the UK & Ireland, where it premiered in December last year at the iconic Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall in London. Bluey’s Big Play will also be making its Asia premiere in Singapore at the Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands, from 13th June this year and will make its premiere in the Middle East at the Etihad Arena Abu Dhabi from 30th August 2024. To date, Bluey’s Big Play has been seen by nearly 1m fans worldwide.
