Microsoft India today announced that MSN India would be the exclusive online partner for the launch of “Noddy”, the English Musical based on the widely popular children’s character created by British author Enid Blyton. Noddy is a little wooden boy who lives in place called Toyland and loves driving his friends around and delivering parcels in his little red and yellow taxi.
www.msnindia.com will offer children across India an opportunity to experience Noddy through its exclusive videos of the live musical performance that would tour different Indian cities in August and September, including Mumbai, New Delhi, Kolkata and Bangalore.
Noddy is a little wooden boy who lives in his own House for One in Toyland. Noddy got his name because his head is on a spring and when he gets excited his head just can’t stop nodding.
Stories of Noddy have been adapted over the years in several formats in print and television. The current musical is an adaptation of “Noddy and the Treasure Map”.
Krishna Prasad, Executive Producer, MSN India said, “Across the world, Noddy is a character adored by young children. We are excited to bring Noddy to children in India by partnering with the musical, “Noddy and the Treasure Map.”
