There’s a Party in my City!

Friday, June 4th, 2010

Ok Kids and Parents get ready for one of the best kids shows out there – Yo Gabba Gabba! DJ Lance Rock and his cartoonish costumed characters (made by Kidrobot (http://www NULL.kidrobot NULL.com)) – Muno, Foofa, Brobee, Toodee and Plex. Musical numbers that will knock your socks off and will even get you dancing.

(http://yogabbagabba NULL.com)

On April 31, 2008 the television show received a Daytime Emmy nomination for Outstanding Achievement in Costume Design/Styling. Although “Yo Gabba Gabba” was created as a show for young children, it has slowly become a sensation among college students and even some parents who are entertained by its retro/indie style, bright colours, simplicity, and entertaining music from many of the popular bands featured on the show.

There will be 4 shows at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre, September 11 & 12, 2010. Tickets go on sale tomorrow at TicketMaster (http://www NULL.ticketmaster NULL.ca/artist/1370489?tm_link=)!
