AFTER thrilling over 2.2 million people in America and
Europe, Dora, her cousin Diego and the rest of their friends
have arrived in Manila and are inviting kids and their families
all over the Philippines to come see them live on their musical
and pirate adventure.
In "Dora’s Pirate Adventure," Dora, her best friend Boots the
Monkey, her cousin Diego and the rest of their friends embark on
an exciting trip to Treasure Island. For the first time ever,
the family-friendly stage show will feature Dora’s cousin, Diego
– a nature and science expert. Kids and their families will help
them navigate over Music Mountain, through silly Singing Bridge
and confront the Pirate Piggies. Along the way, the kids will
use their map-reading, counting, musical and language skills to
successfully help Dora, Diego and Boots reach the treasure. All
ends happily onstage with a "yo-ho-ho!"
Prior to the current Asia tour, "Dora the Explorer Live!
Dora’s Pirate Adventure" has performed throughout the US and
Europe to sold out audiences. "Dora the Explorer Live Dora’s
Pirate Adventure" is fully adapted to reflect local tastes and
culture and to date, has featured casts playing to local
audiences in Israel, France, Belgium and Holland.
"Dora’s Pirate Adventure!" is based on the hit pre-school
television series and global phenomenon, "Dora the Explorer."
Dora is a seven-year old multi-lingual heroine, whose adventures
take place in an imaginative, tropical world filled with
jungles, beaches and rainforests. Dora explores her world just
as pre-schoolers do. Both the TV and stage shows are designed
with a variety of learning techniques emphasizing on
Nickelodeon’s "play-to-learn" philosophy by actively engaging
kids to have fun and interact with Dora along the way.
Each step of their journey consists of a problem or puzzles
that Dora must solve in order to move on to the next challenge.
Dora invites kids to join her and shares different ways to help
her overcome obstacles and accomplish her goals. She actively
engages kids by teaching them new words or phrases in English
and a different language and then asks kids to use them to solve
a problem and forge ahead.
"Dora the Explorer Live! Dora’s Pirate Adventure" will run
until April 27 at Aliw Theater, CCP Complex. Tickets are still
available at all SM TicketNet Outlets. For inquiries, call
911-5555 or 374-9999.
