One of the most beloved family entertainment bands in the world, The Wiggles, will be at the BOK Center for two shows: Sunday, Aug. 2 at 1:30 p.m. and 5 p.m.

The Wiggles, Captain Feathersword, Dorothy the Dinosaur, Henry the Octopus, Wags the Dog and all the Wiggly Dancers will perform their new show "Go Bananas Live!" The fabulous four from down under will feature a brand new lineup of songs from their latest album "The Wiggles Go Bananas" including the smash hit "Monkey Man" featuring Australian pop sensation Kylie Minogue.

The tour brings a highly interactive, fun and educational message to the BOK Center with a show full of audience participation features including having fun with your favorite wiggly pal as they sing and dance through the audience, start the fun at home by creating a Wiggles sign and dressing up as your favorite character, yelling "Wake up, Jeff!" whenever the loveable Purple Wiggle falls asleep onstage, bringing roses, for dancing pal Dorothy the Dinosaur, and bones, for canine comedian Wags the Dog, that The Wiggles and Wiggly Dancers collect during the show.

The Wiggles, the world's No. 1 preschool band, performed over 300 shows to more than 1.5 million fans since 2005 in the United States alone. The Wiggles perform over 200 shows annually across four continents. The Wiggles are seen on TV in over 110 countries worldwide. The Wiggles have sold more than 22.5 million videos and 7 million CDs in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m.

Friday and are available through Tickets.com tulsaworld.com/tickets, Reasor's stores or by calling (866) 726-5287, and at the BOK Center box office. Prices range from $17 to $34. Seating for tickets purchased at the $34 level will take place in the "hot potato seats" and will include an exclusive Wiggles giveaway.

	Report Comment shaw411, Scottsdale, AZ (4/20/2009 1:18:02 PM) I see the tickets are quite affordable for this. Should be a good show!
	Report Comment T.B'Ville, Bartlesville (4/20/2009 1:23:51 PM) Bullhead, ya my girlfriend had sent me that one. We went to Disney Live a couple months ago when they were in Tulsa and it was worth it. This show should be too. We havent been to the new BOK center for anything yet.
	Report Comment Joe E., Tulsa Metro Area (4/20/2009 2:10:02 PM) We saw them in OKC a couple of years ago. It's a great show. But don't expect them to be selling Roses for Dorothy, when we went, you had to bring your own.
	Report Comment SoCal Fan, Broken Arrow (4/20/2009 3:54:49 PM) I will not be attending. I wouldn't want to offend anyone with my drunken ways and filthy language.
	Report Comment GrannyTazzy, Tulsa (4/20/2009 4:17:05 PM) EEEEEEEEEEEEeeek ... and WHEW so glad they came after my grandkids got over them. I do however love the song YUMMY YUMMY Fruit salad, and Mashed potatoe mashed potatoe.. Oh how many zillions of hours i've sat and listened to them. Now it's Sponge bob....
	Report Comment Golden Sluricane, (4/20/2009 7:59:24 PM) SoCal... Do you think they will serve beer there? A $17 cover is a bit steep, but I bet there will be some hot moms.
	Report Comment seymore1965, Tulsa (4/20/2009 10:26:23 PM) Arbythree, yes we are getting somewhere. They went to the Ford Center and didn't come to Tulsa a while back. Tulsa couldn't even pull in the Wiggles! Now Tulsa is getting all the fun and OKC is in a drought. There is a god.
	Report Comment Joe E., Tulsa Metro Area (4/21/2009 9:15:15 AM) My kids have outgrown the Wiggles, but I was glad they were around. Their tunes were cute and funny and singable.
	Report Comment Slatz, Tulsa (4/23/2009 10:53:41 AM) They frighten me...but then, so does Elmo and Barney. ~:o
