Scholastic Media and Mills Entertainment announced today the kick off of a new 50- city live tour of ‘Clifford The Big Red Dog LIVE! A BIG Family Musical.’  This new musical adventure teaches audiences that ‘it only takes a little to BE BIG’. Clifford and Emily Elizabeth take a journey to Birdwell Island with their friends Cleo, T-Bone, Charley, Jetta and Mac.

“Bringing Clifford to the stage is a great way for children and families to experience the BIG red dog in an up close and personal way,” said Leslye Schaefer, Senior Vice President, Marketing and Consumer Products for Scholastic Media. “Clifford makes for a BIG star and we’re delighted to team up with Mills Entertainment to deliver an exciting and engaging theatrical experience for kids.”

The production, directed by Mark Fleischer, features a book written by Jeremy Dobrish with music and lyrics by Dennis Scott.
