Review: Sesame Street Live: Elmo’s Green Thumb!

MY THOUGHTS:

Okay so my boys are not huge Sesame Street fans, but it is not because of the puppets (which they love) but they have no patience for when the adults come on.  They just don’t get it and are spoiled with all the animated cartoons.  They loved all the bright characters though and the music was absolutely adorable!  The music was all song melodies that adults know but with different music.  (Sorry I am drawing a blank at an example now, but I really enjoyed the songs.)  The show was about 1.5 hours (not including the 15 minute intermission) and it would definitely be a hit with any Sesame Street fan or child that loves music!  I just couldn’t believe all the characters – at one point I think I counted 11 on stage.  The show also included letters and numbers of the day just like the television show.  Overall, I thought the show was super cute and love the idea behind it.  The show was about planting a flower, looking at things from another perspective (a bugs), making decisions, and working together!  My boys didn’t get the storyline, but they knew it was about a flower and they liked the bugs!  I still can’t get over how nice the characters looked and how great the music was!

ABOUT THE SHOW:

Sunny isn’t just the weather forecast on Sesame Street – it’s also the name of Elmo’s sunflower friend! Join all your favorite friends on an amazing adventure as they help Elmo find a new home for Sunny in the all new Sesame Street Live stage show, “Elmo’s Green Thumb”

Elmo has raised his sunflower, Sunny, from a seed, but his floral friend has outgrown the flower pot. Elmo and friends find Big Bird’s garden the ideal place for Sunny to flourish and grow but they are too excited to wait. Rather than let Sunny follow nature’s course, Abby Cadabby, Sesame Street’s fairy-in-training, casts a spell to make Sunny grow. The spell does just the opposite and, instead of growing, Elmo and all of his friends shrink! While Abby searches for just the right words to reverse the spell, Elmo, Zoe,Telly and friends explore Big Bird’s garden from a smaller perspective and learn some big lessons about patience, overcoming their fears and appreciating the role that each creature plays in our ecosystem – from dancing ladybugs and beautiful butterflies to grouchy beetles that scavenge the garden floor. Will being small help Sunny grow tall? It’s a fresh, original Sesame Street Live from a whole new point of view!
