Blue heeler pup sisters Bluey and Bingo, and their parents, Bandit and Chilli will all be appearing in Bluey's Big Play.
The show includes puppetry, live actors and iconic Australian sets, and will hit the Illawarra Performing Arts Centre for four days and eight shows in August.
Tickets went on sale at 10am on Friday, with seats for some Wollongong shows almost gone within the hour.
The play will tell an original story written by Bluey creator Joe Brumm with new music created by Bluey composer, Joff Bush.
For the uninitiated, Bluey is a home-grown Aussie preschool series which first aired on ABC KIDS in October 2018.
Loved by parents as much as kids, it has become the number one kids show on Australian TV with 170 million views.
This makes it the most watched program in the history of ABC iview.
The show's director Rosemary Myers said she was thrilled to be taking Bluey and her family off the TV screen and into theatres.
"Like the rest of Australia, we love Bluey and it's a thrill and a privilege to bring these brilliant characters into the three dimensional world," she said.
The show will also be on at the Shoalhaven Entertainment Centre on August 15 and 16.
