Do you have

a preschooler in the family? If you do, you probably know

Blue, a fun little puppy, and Steve, his friend in the

green striped shirt.

"Blue's

Clues" is a popular interactive television show for

children on Nickelodeon. It is currently the most watched

preschool show on TV with over seven million viewers a

week.

Children

are given clues and asked to help Blue find certain

characters, objects or places. Along with Blue and Steve,

there are other friends who appear frequently on the

show, including Mail Box, Slippery Soap, Tickety Tock,

and Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper.

All of

these characters and some new ones will appear at the Fox

Theatre in Atlanta Jan. 12-16 for "Blue's Clues

Live."

"Blue's

Clues Live" blends the action of the show with what

will likely be the children's first experience with

theater. Each child in the audience will get a notebook,

used to interact with Steve and Blue and find clues

during the show.

"With

`Blue's Clues Live,' we're introducing preschoolers to

the magic of theater while encouraging the same

interactivity, enthusiasm and play-along spirit that we

have with the TV show," says Angela Santomero, one

of the original creators of the hit series and author of

the show.

Santomero

collaborated with Gil Hoppe to create "Blue's Clues

Live" and to make the most interactive children's

theater presentation to date. Show designers all have

Broadway experience. David Gallo, the set designer,

recently designed the sets for the Broadway revival of

"You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown," while Greg

Barnes designed the costumes for the "Wizard of

Oz" at Madison Square Garden's theater and

"Rugrats - A Live Adventure."

"For

many children, this will be their first experience with

live theater," said Hoppe." So we've created a

smart, charming play that really speaks to children. And

we hope that `Blue's Clues Live' inspires them to see

even more theater."

"Blue's

Clues Live" will be presented Wednesday through

Friday at 7 p.m., Thursday at 10:30 a.m., and Saturday

and Sunday at 11 a.m., 2 p.m., and 5 p.m. Ticket prices

range from $14.50 to $24.50 and can be purchased at the

Fox Theatre Box Office or by calling Ticketmaster at

404-249-6400.
