FANS will be able to say 'Eh oh' to the Teletubbies next year as they mark their 20th anniversary with their first live theatre show. 

Tinky Winky, Dispy, Laa-Laa and Po will be heading to St Helens Theatre Royal on February 24 and 25, 2018 as part of their UK and Ireland tour. 

A spokesman added: "Join the Teletubbies in a captivating stage show full of love, laughter, music and 'big hugs' as they explore the magical world of Teletubbyland.

"Look out for the Tubby Phone, Noo-Noo and Sun Baby in a fun, bright and safe world, which captures young children’s imaginations and encourages them to explore the world around them.

"Young audiences will have the opportunity to join in and enjoy beloved features from the TV series along with brand new songs by BAFTA award-winning composer, Mani Svavarsson."

Teletubbies Live has been created and adapted for the stage by Richard Lewis, who has also created and directed the hugely successful Peppa Pig Live shows.

Featuring full-sized Teletubbies characters, bright colours, puppetry, movement, songs and actions, prodcuers say Teletubbies Live is the perfect show for introducing young children to the fun and magic of theatre.

Tickets go on sale at 10am on June 28.

The world premiere of the show takes place in Manchester in November this year and to celebrate the occasion, the Palace Theatre and production company Fiery Light is holding a free Teletubbies Live Launch Party which will give little ones the chance to meet Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa and Po and enjoy a host of other free activities.
