Dora the Explorer Live!
Dora’s Pirate Adventure
NEW SHOWS ADDED


Hola! Due to overwhelming demand, promoters of Dora the Explorer Live! Dora's Pirate Adventure have added in extra shows in all the New Zealand towns and cities the show is visiting next month for the school holidays.

New show have been added in Auckland, Hamilton, Christchurch, Napier, New Plymouth and Wellington.

Join in with Dora, her cousin Diego, Boots the Monkey, and the rest of their friends as they embark on an exciting trip to Treasure Island, where they will navigate the seven seas, overcome a few fun obstacles and confront the Pirate Piggies. Along the way, you will be able to use your map-reading, counting, music and Spanish-language skills to successfully help Dora find the treasure and end her adventure with a happy “yo-ho-ho!”


Dora the Explorer is a seven-year-old Latina heroine whose adventures take place in an imaginative, tropical world filled with jungles, beaches and rainforests. Dora explores her world just as pre-schoolers do everyday. Both the TV and stage shows are designed to engage pre-schoolers to explore, communicate, solve puzzles and discover a diverse and exciting world, while having fun of course!

Each step of their journey consists of a problem or a puzzle that Dora and the audience must solve in order to move on to the next challenge. Dora is proudly bilingual and uses her knowledge of English and Spanish to communicate with her friends, overcome obstacles and reach her goals. Dora teaches Spanish words or phrases to the audience and then encourages them to use their new words to help her complete her mission.
