If you have preschoolers in your family, I’m sure they know all about “Bluey.” I don’t know any toddlers. For that reason, I looked up the show online. Generally, Bluey.tv describes this Australian animated television series like this: “Bluey follows the adventures of a lovable and inexhaustible six-year-old puppy, who along with her sister Bingo, parents and friends, is learning all about the world.” And now, they’re bringing “Bluey’s Big Play Stage Show” to Las Vegas!

‘Bluey’s Big Play Stage Show' Coming To The Smith Center In 2024

In any case, get the kids together and plan on bringing them to The Smith Center, August 10th or 11th, in 2024. There will be two matinee shows on both dates. One at 11 a.m. and one at 2 p.m. I’m sure tickets are going to sell quickly, so prepare to visit TheSmithCenter.com to purchase tickets online. At this time, ticket prices range from $29 to $72 dollars. It’s important to note that tickets go on sale this Friday, December 15th, at 10 a.m.

In fact, the 50-minute stage show is appropriate for all ages, and there will be no intermission. An article by Stephanie Overton on 8NewsNow.com states that “Bluey’s Big Play” was very well received by audiences in Australia. Moreover, the “Bluey” television series is an Emmy Award-winning program. It currently airs on Disney Junior, Disney Channel, and Disney+.

Here's What You Need To Know About The Show

According to TheSmithCenter.com, any child 2+ must have a ticket, although children under two do not need a ticket. However, those under two without tickets must sit on a parent or guardian’s lap since there are limited seats available. There is also an incredible VIP package available if you’ve got the cash. You can get more details on that by clicking here.

If your preschoolers follow the tv show, you can let them know that they’ll be enjoying Bluey, Bingo, and all their other favorite characters in a live theater show which will feature “puppetry, live actors, and ‘iconic sets.’” That’s according to Overton’s article. Furthermore, TheSmithCenter.com states the stage play is “an original story by Bluey creator Joe Brumm, and new music by Bluey composer Joff Bush.”

Santa Claus Is Coming to Town (1970)

Yet another Rankin/Bass produced stop motion classic, this film tells the story of how a young Kris Kringle becomes the Santa Claus we all love.

A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965)

This, and the next cartoon, are perhaps the most popular classics on this list. You can stream A Charlie Brown Christmas on AppleTV+

How The Grinch Stole Christmas (1966)

While I personally prefer Jim Carrey's live action version of this story, there's no denying that the original animated movie deserves to be visited throughout the season.

A Chipmunk Christmas Movie (1981)

I was born in the 80's, so this is the special I remember the most from my childhood. I recently shared it with my 6-year-old and it still holds up and my kid loved the music.

A Flintstone Christmas (1977)

A Flintstone Christmas, in which Fred and Barney must save Christmas when Santa sprains his ankle. There's one big problem, though - Fred promised Mr. Slate that he will play Santa at the Children's holiday party. Can Fred and Barney deliver all the toys and still make it back to the party in time?
