Get Ready For A Spectacular New Stage Show; Cartoon Network Live! Heroes Unite

World Premiere to be held in Abu Dhabi in October

SES Live, Live Nation Middle East and Turner’s Cartoon Network are thrilled to announce a brand new live show for all the family - Cartoon Network Live! Heroes Unite. The World Premiere will be held at the DU Forum, Yas Island, Abu Dhabi from 11th – 14th October, after which the show will embark on a tour across the Middle East, Europe and Africa. Tickets are on sale now from www.ticketmaster.ae.

This interactive and spectacular stage production for kids and families will feature Cartoon Network’s most popular heroes from Ben 10, The Amazing World of Gumball, Adventure Time and The Powerpuff Girls. In the show, we meet Kelvin Gizmo, scientist extraordinaire, who takes us into the world of Cartoon Network which is under threat of Zarr, the evil robot. We travel through the Land of Ooo, the city of Townsville and Elmore and meet their famous inhabitants. With them, and the help of the audience, Kevin Gizmo will hopefully be able to stop Zarr and his evil plans.

The production brings together an international, award-winning creative team to ensure a quality family entertainment stage show for audiences of all ages. The show is directed by award-winning director and choreographer Bart Doerfler, known for his work on The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios Hollywood, The Walt Disney Company, The Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus, Holiday On Ice and Dreamworks. Besides Bart Doerfler, the creative team consists of Stephen Emmer (Musical Director), Cynthia Nordstrom (Costume Designer), David Smeets (Lighting Designer) and Marinus de Graaf (Set Designer) and Michael Al-far (Video content designer).
