SHOPKINS LIVE to Appear at Capitol Center

Shopkins Live! Shop It Up! will be at the Capitol Center for the Arts in Concord, NH for one show only on Wednesday, February 28 at 6PM. This performance is part of a 115+-city North American tour. Shopkins Live! Shop It Up! is the first theatrical production based on the phenomenally successful Shopkins toy brand.

Shopkins Live! Shop It Up! immerses audiences in the world of Shopville using custom-designed theatrical costumes, creative onstage characters, state-of-art video and set design. Original music, song, dance and interactive sing-a-longs are a huge part of the live show, with performances from Shoppies Jessicake, Bubbleisha, Peppa-Mint, Rainbow Kate, Cocolette, Polli Polish and more.

Since its launch in 2014, the Shopkins brand continues to be a hot ticket item for children worldwide. Shoppies dolls consistently rank as the #1 kids toy in the U.S.; the first-ever Shopkins movie, Shopkins Chef Club, was released last year by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment; and numerous dedicated apps continue to expand the brand's ever-growing world.

"We're so thrilled to see all the besties in attendance with ear-to-ear smiles. They get so enthralled by the vibrant, colorful set and costumes, and soon enough the catchy songs will have BFFs singing along and dancing in their seats," says Gilles Paquin, President and CEO of Koba Entertainment, who also serves as Executive Producer of Shopkins Live! Shop It Up!.

Shopkins Live! Shop It Up! runs for approximately 90 minutes, with one 15-minute intermission. Tickets for the February 28 performance start at $25, plus any applicable fees for phone/Internet sales.
