Sesame Street Live

February 12-15

An "Out of This World" Trip Down Sesame Street

An ordinary day soon becomes extraordinary when a spaceship gets stuck on Sesame Street and it is up to the whole gang – Big Bird, Elmo, Bert & Ernie, Cookie Monster, Elmo, Oscar, Grover, Terry, Baby Bear, Telly, Prairie Dawn, Grundgetta, Honker, the Yup-Yups, Count Von Count, Rosita and Zoe to help out two homesick Martians get back to space as soon as possible. Despite the Martians’ short stay, everyone has a great time dancing, singing, playing, and learning. It truly is an “Out of this World” experience!

Luckily, the Yup-Yups land at “the happiest street in the world” where their Muppet friends can teach them all about Earth and the people who live there. While Terry, the fix-it gal, makes repairs on the Martians’ spaceship, the intergalactic visitors learn how much we love all different kinds of things from pigeons to cookies to trash. Sesame Street Live also teaches children how much we have in common, regardless of the language we speak, the way we look or even the way we like to dance.

Since Sesame Street is a high-energy, high-quality production, this show not only entertains but teaches children valuable life lessons such as patience, cooperation and teamwork that make it’s sister show so successful. Adults will appreciate the stage show and can revisit memories from childhood with classic Sesame Street music. Popular songs include “Sunny Days,” “The Hokey-Pokey,” and “We Are Family.” As a child’s first theatrical performance, Sesame Street Live “marks the beginning of a lifelong journey of enjoying and appreciating the arts.”

“Kids Love It, Parents Trust It.” And why shouldn’t they? After all, Sesame Street has won a total of 91 Emmys, is the twelfth longest-running TV show ever and has the largest worldwide audience of any children’s program. Besides the awards and attention Sesame Street has garnered, the show transcends societal boundaries to make it a worthwhile experience for everyone, adults and children alike.

So don’t forget to have fun, dance, clap, and sing along and remember, “kids are really just an excuse to go.”
