Isn't it time for Duggee? Hit children’s show Hey Duggee will be visiting the region as part of a first-ever live theatre tour.

Big lovable dog Duggee, the Squirrels and friends are hitting the road with the vibrant and interactive stage show for families.

Hey Duggee The Live Theatre Show will be heading to Peterborough’s New Theatre, from Tuesday, February 14 to Wednesday, February 15, 2023.

The smash hit CBeebies series will be brought to life through innovative puppetry and storytelling in this new live show.

Since bursting onto TV screens in 2014, the BBC and Studio AKA creation has won no fewer than six BAFTAs and is an international Emmy award-winning hit.

Hey Duggee was the most streamed children’s show on BBC iPlayer in 2021.

The live theatre show is presented by award-winning theatre producer Kenny Wax and theatre and live entertainment promoters Cuffe and Taylor, in association with Live Nation.

Kenny Wax said: “We are so thrilled to be working with Live Nation, Cuffe & Taylor, Studio AKA and BBC Studios to create a brand new stage show with lots of surprises. I can't wait.”

The new play will be packed with non-stop fun, laughs, singing and dancing.
