Gettin’ Ready For Elmo??

by The Rock Relic

Let’s face it … everybody loves Elmo, right?  If you’ve ever watched “Sesame Street”, or had one of those little “Tickle Me” dolls that would laugh like crazy and shake at the same time (sorta like a guy goin’ on his first date), you know what I’m talkin’ about.

And now  Elmo’s in Charlotte with the rest of his “Street” pals, kickin’ up the fun in When Elmo Grows Up.  It’s a 90-minute production that’ll spark the kids’ imagination and wonder as they ask themselves the same question:  What’ll I be when I grow up??

The show uses Broadway-style music and staging to teach kids that, if they believe in themselves and work well, anything is possible (no, this is not an Obama campaign in disguise! :))  And, among the 24 songs on tap, the kids’ll be hearing some very familiar tunes like Itsy, Bitsy Spider and, of course, the Sesame Street theme song!

They’ll also get to meet the newest resident of the Street, a youngster named Abby Cadabby!  This will be her onstage debut … so be nice, okay??

this Thursday and running until Sunday!  They’re at 10:30 AM and 7:00 PM on Thursday-Friday; at 10:30 AM and 2 PM on Saturday, and at 5:30 PM on Sunday!

You can get your tickets through Ticketmaster or at the box-office. Just remember to get there early, because these shows are always tremendous hits!
