If you have a kid in primary school, we bet your bottom dollar they’re familiar with Captain Underpants and Dog Man. Both are characters created by children’s author/illustrator Dav Pilkey for his award-winning series of the same names. And now, this week, Dog Man is leaping from the page and onto The Art House stage in this musical adaptation of his series.

This show has proven super popular, and The Art House’s evening performance has only single tickets remaining. But we have fabulous news! Previously reserved for school groups, the daytime performances have now been opened up to the public. So if you thought you’d missed out taking your family, you now don’t have to.

Plus, we have two family passes to give away. For your chance to enter, scroll down.

Want to know what Dog Man: The Musical is all about?

The premise of this stage show is funny and ridiculous… Dog Man has the head of a dog and the body of a policeman! He loves to fight crime, chew the furniture and fight Petey – the world’s most evil cat. Can he save the city from Flippy the cyborg fish and his army of Beasty Buildings? You best get tickets to find out!

Like the books, this show is wacky, silly, bold and fun. It’s creative and imaginative and completely aligned with primary school humour. Grab yourself a seat and get ready for a laugh.
