Make a new friend with “Sesame Street Live”

Elmo, Grover, Big Bird and the whole “Sesame Street” gang are coming to the Tilles Center for the Performing Arts on Sept. 25, 26, and 27 for a brand new show “Make a New Friend.”

Join your favorite muppets for a fun performance in this all new, interactive learning experience, including up-close and furry interactions on the audience floor. It’s a high-tech stagecraft and cleverly written script, with classic musical numbers everyone can sing along with, including “Count Me In,” and fun new parodies of “Hot and Cold,” and “Moves Like Jagger.”

Elmo, Grover, and their friends welcome Chamki, Grover’s friend from India, to Sesame Street. Chamki is from far away and she’s visiting for just one day! Grover has a long to-do list for his friend, but Chamki is enjoying cookies with Cookie Monster, singing with Abby Cadabby, and doing “The Elmo Slide.” Explore the fun of friendship and celebrate cultures, from singing and dancing to sharing cookies.

“Make a new Friend” Sept. 25 at 10:30 am; Sept. 26 at 10:30 am, and 2 pm; and Sept. 27 at 1:30 pm and 4 pm. Tickets range in price from $25 to $40.
