Dora to delight Pinoy kids

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.
