The Long Center for the Performing Arts

      Nickelodeon and Broadway Across America will bring the national touring production of Storytime Live! to The Long Center on August 18th and 19th.  The  first-ever live family theatrical tour - featuring characters from the current top-rated preschool television shows "Dora the Explorer," "The Backyardigans," "The Wonder Pets!" and "Ni Hao, Kai-lan" - brings to life favorite Nick Jr. characters in one on-stage adventure, hosted by Nick Jr.'s Moose A. Moose and Zee.
     Each segment of Storytime Live! takes kids and their families on a different adventure, whether leaping into Fairytale Land with Dora and Sleeping Boots, journeying through Filthingham with The Backyardigans, hopping into Wonderland with the Wonder Pets, or jumping on clouds with Kai-lan and the Monkey King.  In addition to the Austin tour stop, the production will visit more than 70 cities in 2010.
    The show's creative team includes veterans from Broadway and national tours.  In addition, the creative teams for each of the featured Nick Jr. television shows helped write and guide the production.
