Sooty, the nation’s favourite magic yellow bear, celebrated his official 75th birthday on Wednesday
19 July 2023. To mark the anniversary, Sooty, Sweep and Soo, together with their right-hand man of
25 years Richard Cadell are back with a brand-new celebratory theatre tour across the UK: The
Sooty Show – 75th Birthday Spectacular!

Sooty and the gang will be bringing their much-loved mix
of chaos, mischief and mayhem to the Alhambra Theatre, Bradford on Saturday 21 October  at 11.00am and 2.30pm.

The party preparations are well underway: Sooty gets messy baking the birthday cake, Soo’s trying
to find the perfect party dress, and Sweep’s practising his dance moves and needs some boys and
girls to join in with musical statues! Sooty is planning his biggest magic trick yet – making a member
of the audience float in the air! Audiences need to watch out for Sooty’s new water pistol – it’s
turbocharged to reach right to the back of the theatre.

With buckets of audience participation and gallons of giggles, this spectacular celebration of 75 years
of the nation’s favourite yellow magic bear will delight Sooty fans old and new and is a must-see treat
for the whole family. There will also be a chance to meet Richard and Sooty after the show!

When asked about going on tour to celebrate Sooty’s 75th birthday, Sweep said “Squeak, squeak
squeak, squeak squeak squeak!”. Sooty was not able to comment.
