The Backyardigans franchise continues to expand. Tasha, Pablo, Uniqua, Tyrone, and Austin will have an hour long prime time movie on January 14th. The The Backyardigans: Born to Play CD will be released on January 22nd. And the stage show, yes the stage show, The Backyardigans Live! will open a 50 city tour on March 28th.

In the movie, “Tale of the Mighty Knights,” royal knights Uniqua and Tyrone are ready to do mighty deeds in service to their King (Pablo). It seems like a pretty simple task until the King asks them to babysit an egg, which grows legs and runs away! A rock opera soundtrack moves the action along as the knights pursue their egg in Goblin Land and encounter a grabbing goblin (Austin), through Fairyland where they meet a tiny and mischievous fairy (Tasha), and finally to Dragon Mountain where they face a mighty baby dragon (Adam Pascal). The musical theme for the movie is a rock opera.

The movie will air at 7 p.m. on Nick Jr.
