Fifi Heads to the Land of the Long White Cloud!

News release
March 13, 2007

Fifi Heads to the Land of the Long White Cloud!

Fifi and the Flowertots is a delightful animation series from the successful originator of Bob the Builder, Keith Chapman.

In a very short time, Fifi and the Flowertots has become a very successful and much loved children’s series around the world, now broadcasting in over 150 countries and continuously expanding.

After recently celebrating the Queen’s birthday at Buckingham Palace, visiting the Eiffel Tower in Paris and dancing under the Harbour Bridge in Sydney, Fifi and her best friend Bumble have jumped on a plane to visit their fans in New Zealand this March.

The successful creator of the series Keith Chapman will also be joining the flowertots on the tour.

Fifi, Bumble and Keith will make appearances at the below locations:
Wednesday 14th March at 2.30pm - Westfield Glenfield
Thursday 15th March at 11am – Westfield Manukau City
Thursday 15th March at 1.30pm – Westfield WestCity
Friday 16th March at 12.30pm – Westfield Queensgate

Fifi and the Flowertots is designed to inspire, entertain and amuse. Fifi, the central character, is an endearing little Forget-Me-Not (voiced by Jane Horrocks – Absolutely Fabulous) who inhabits a magical garden world with her Flowertot friends, and where every day is filled with endless possibilities.

Jane Horrocks, the mother of two, renowned for her vocal talents, also lends her dulcet tones to Primrose – a very prim and proper Flowertot. Horrocks says of the show: “I'm extremely proud of Fifi. I love using my voice for this role, but the simplicity of Fifi is what appeals to me most, she's so endearing. The world they live in is so colourful. It's been a real treat working on it.”
