The Wiggles are a huge Australian success story. Since its inception over thirty years ago, thousands of children, parents and carers have fallen under the spell of the colourfully dressed group members, singing catchy, active songs with memorable tunes and lyrics. Who can forget in a hurry Captain Feathersword, Wags the Dog, He Likes… and Hot Potato? The band has sold huge numbers of albums and DVDs and has had billions of views on YouTube and equally large numbers of music streams. There is a also thriving market in Wiggles merchandise. The Wiggles have also been inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame.
The guiding principles of the group are:
“Children are our inspiration. Education is our goal. Music and movement is our way!”
One of Australlia’s most successful exports and still going strong, The Wiggles group is on a mission to engage children all over the world.
‘Hello! We’re The Wiggles’ is showing at the Melbourne Recital Centre on Friday, June 30 at 31 Sturt Street, Southbank, VIC. Show times vary. Tickets cost $33.90.
