VeggieTales fans should get ready to sing, dance and laugh! The VeggieTales characters are hitting the road this spring for an ALL-VEGGIE show, performing their silly songs during their major market VeggieTales Rockin’ Tour LIVE! Audiences can experience the silliness at churches and theatres across North America.

The tour, which kicks off March 9th in Virginia Beach, VA, will visit more than 45 cities spanning 23 states and 4 provinces, including such major markets as Ottawa, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Calgary, Kelowna and Abbotsford.

Combining all of the well-known VeggieTales songs, timeless values and plenty of that wacky humour VeggieTales fans enjoy so much make this a delightfully entertaining show for kids of all ages. Taking the show out on the road like a true concert tour, audiences can expect to see some of their all-time favourite VeggieTales characters come to life right before their very eyes as they learn a lesson in friendship and experience a few really fun surprises!

“Our live show provides the perfect opportunity for children of any age to experience a high-energy performance starring their favourite VeggieTales characters,” says Terry Pefanis, Big Idea COO.

“Due to popular demand, the VeggieTales Rockin’ Tour LIVE is back with even more time dedicated to interaction with Bob, Larry and the rest of the Veggies cast,” continues Pefanis. “The show consists of two 40-minute segments enhanced through the use of engaging visuals such as a large screen video, a state-of-the-art lighting show, and much more. The incredibly positive impact of this show for children and parents alike will be both memorable and uplifting for years to come!”

Show Synopsis
The show features Bob the Tomato as the stage manager who has written the script and is continually pushing all his Veggie friends to keep to the song list he has provided. Unfortunately for Bob, the Veggies have their own idea about what songs should be performed. The mayhem that ensues will cause the audience to laugh out loud and dance in their seats. Kids will leave the show with a healthy dose of Veggies and a gentle reminder that “God made them special and He loves them very much.”

The tour will coincide with the release of VeggieTale’s latest video, Sheerluck Holmes And The Golden Ruler and the DVD debut of Are You My Neighbor? which releases on March 11th and the VeggieTales Worship Songs and A Very Veggie Easter CDs releasing on March 7th. Their latest video, The Lord Of The Beans, is currently available at Canadian Christian retail stores nationwide.
