After years of captivating children from around the globe, the number one children's entertainment group, The Wiggles, are bringing their "catchy brand of preschool pop" (Chicago Tribune) back to North American audiences. This fall, "the band that rocks the cradle" (The New York Times) will delight families across the country in support of their new CD and DVD, "Apples and Bananas" (available August 26), as well as a new season of their hit television show airing on Sprout.

Founding member Anthony Field (Blue Wiggle) along with Emma Watkins (Yellow Wiggle), Simon Pryce (Red Wiggle) and Lachlan Gillespie (Purple Wiggle) will be joined on stage by the lovable Dorothy the Dinosaur, Captain Feathersword, Wags the Dog and Henry the Octopus for a wiggly good time! The Aussie Fab Four will treat North American audiences to new music from "Apples and Bananas," a collection of classic nursery rhymes such as "This Old Man" and "The Wheels on the Bus," as well as old favorites including "Hot Potato", "Rock-A-Bye Your Bear", "Do The Propeller" and "Get Ready to Wiggle."

Don't miss your chance to see the "forever-young" (Detroit Free Press) quartet enchant legions of fans with a Wiggly dose of singing and dancing designed to educate and inspire healthy choices in children.

Tickets to THE WIGGLES "READY, STEADY, WIGGLE" are $29.50 and $39.50* with a 10% discount available to members of The Hanover Theatre, groups of 10 or more, and WOO Card holders. Tickets are available online at TheHanoverTheatre.org, by phone at 877.571.SHOW (7469), or at The Hanover Theatre box office located at 2 Southbridge Street in downtown Worcester.
