Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Madison Square Garden? Because the 2014 Sesame Street Live show “Let’s Dance!” – no, not based on the David Bowie song (though that would be awesome) – is coming to Madison Square Garden in early 2016! Ticket sales begin on September 29th and range from $15 to the $141 “Sunny Seats,” which include perks like meet-and-greets and premium seating.
The official description for the show reads: Hosted by two live performers, Sesame Street Live “Let’s Dance!” offers an up-close, interactive experience like you’ve never experienced before! You, the audience, are invited to dance as all of your favorite Sesame Street friends join you on the floor – dancing with fans of all ages! In addition to ongoing dance parties, Elmo uses his imagination to “Do the Robot,” Cookie Monster teaches all “feets” to dance, and Ernie shares the fun of dance with the Sesame Street favorite “Shake Your Head One Time.”
While I’ve never heard of “Do the Robot,” I am familiar with “Shake Your Head One Time,” and it’s nice to see a return of a classic song. I’ve personally never seen Sesame Street Live but for it to have lasted as long as it has it must be pretty darn good.
So, who is the intended audience for this show? Obviously if you have children or even nieces/nephews that are fans of Sesame Street this would be something great to take them to. Or if you’re outside of the preschool age but still enjoy Sesame Street, I see no problem with someone older than 4 or 5 going to see this. Remember though, this is coming from a guy that went to see a Winnie the Pooh show when he was 12 (I’m not ashamed to admit that). Just don’t give the kids any weird looks.
