Since we announced dates a month ago, we’ve sold out numerous performances and now we’ve added in new days and new shows all over the country. We are delighted to be bringing back SESAME STREET PRESENTS ELMO’S WORLD TOUR to Australia in 2013.”
In SESAME STREET PRESENTS ELMO’S WORLD TOUR, the Sesame Street gang – Abby Cadabby, Big Bird, Grover, Zoe, Cookie Monster and Elmo use the letters of the alphabet to navigate a voyage through imagination that sees them visiting China, Zambia, France, India and Australia! Elmo and his friends have fun learning how people sing, dance and say hello all over the world. Along the way, audiences will hear a sensational tale from The Count, help some travelling rubber-duckies find a place to stay with Bert and Ernie, and see the Sesame Street gang make a new friend; the gorgeous, gregarious, globe-trotter from the Gold Coast – Lady Baa Baa – proving its more fun to be mutton than lamb. Featuring a bunch of classic Sesame Street songs alongside some catchy new tunes.Sesame Street has delighted and educated Australian children since it first began airing on ABC TV in 1971.
Since that time, the popular TV series has been a mainstay not only for Australian audiences on the ABC but for countless viewers the world over who enjoy local Sesame Street programs in over 150 countries and translated into many, many languages. By 2006, Sesame Street had become “the most widely viewed children’s television show in the world”, with 20 international independent versions featuring locally developed Sesame Street Muppets addressing the needs of children in that country. Sesame Street has won 10 Grammy Awards and 138 Emmy Awards – more than any other children’s TV program.
