When I was growing up I remember how much joy I got from watching Sesame Street. Watching it every day and learning new numbers or letters was always so much fun. Now with children of my own I watch the new episodes of Sesame Street and it takes me back to my childhood. I love watching all the new characters that have been introduced and see how they interact with the characters I grew up watching. In a few months, the gang will be live in the Chicagoland area for a show that will entertain the entire family.

Sesame Street Live! Let’s Party!, family entertainment’s sunniest and funniest street celebration, will visit the Chicago area, Oct. 12 – 14, 2018, for eight performances at the Rosemont Theatre. The inaugural production under Feld Entertainment’s new partnership with the non-profit educational organization, Sesame Workshop, features favorite Sesame Street pals Elmo, Abby Cadabby, Big Bird and more in a brand-new sensory adventure live on stage.

From the moment the curtain rises, parents and children alike will be on their feet dancing along to a pop-infused soundtrack with new Sesame Street friends and live emcees Casey and Caleb. Planning a party isn’t easy when everybody has a different idea of fun, but with some help from the audience, it becomes the ultimate reflection of what friendship plus teamwork can accomplish. Party guests will sing along to new and familiar songs, like “I Love Trash” and “C is for Cookie,” with Oscar the Grouch and Cookie Monster; dance to the beat with Elmo; explore a wintry wonderland when Abby Cadabby’s magic goes awry; take flight with Big Bird to learn about some of his fabulous feathered friends; and discover new cultures in an interactive Spanish lesson with Rosita. A unique, up-close-and-personal pre-show experience will be offered at an additional charge prior to select performances, allowing families the opportunity to tour the on-stage neighborhood of their favorite, furry friends before they arrive for the main show. The fun doesn’t end there. A variety of interactive activities give children the chance to create, discover and learn as they help decorate for the upcoming party.
