Sesame Street Live Make New Friends CELEBRATES 25 YEARS

at the FOX Theatre
JANUARY 23 – FEBRUARY 16

No matter where you’re from or where you’ve been, everyone is special - so join in! Elmo, Grover, Abby Cadabby, and their Sesame Street friends welcome Chamki, Grover’s friend from India, to Sesame Street. Together, they explore the universal fun of friendship and celebrate cultural similarities, from singing and dancing, to sharing cookies! Celebrating 25 years as Detroit’s family favorite tradition at the Fox Theatre, Sesame Street Live will make its annual return to the stage with the all-new Sesame Street Live “Make a New Friend” starting Friday, January 23 through Monday, February 16.

Tickets ($15, $25, $35 Gold Circle and $65 Sunny Seats) are on sale now and can be purchased at OlympiaEntertainment.com, the Fox Theatre and Joe Louis Arena box offices, Hockeytown Authentics in Troy (without service charge) at all Ticketmaster locations and Ticketmaster.com.

Chamki is from far away and she’s visiting Sesame Street for just one day! Grover has a long to-do list for his friend, from kayaking to hot yoga, but Chamki is busy enjoying cookies with Cookie Monster, singing with Abby Cadabby, and doing ‘The Elmo Slide.’ Will an appearance from Super Grover get Chamki’s attention? Join the fun and make a memory with your friends and family!

Sesame Street Live “Make a New Friend” offers a fun-filled, interactive learning experience, including up-close and furry interactions on the audience floor! Like television’s Sesame Street, each Sesame Street Live production features timeless tunes and lessons for all ages. The universal appeal of each Broadway-quality musical production continues long after preschool.

FREE Comic Book Day May 3rd!

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 01 May 2014 03:02:00 +0000

IT'S HERE! IT'S HERE! FREE COMIC BOOK DAY IS HERE AGAIN!

Whose your favorite? Superman? Batman? Maybe it's a new generation of Hero? Mark your calendar for May 3 2014, because it's FREE comic book day! Truth be told, I'm a recovering comic book junkie. It started as a little kid and the weekly anticipated Saturday morning ritual of waking up early, no not for school, but to watch cartoons. Saturday morning cartoons were so much better than after school cartoons, probably because it was just a little too early for our mom to send us outside to play. We also didn't have 24/7 cartoon channels back then so you looked forward to watching your favorite cartoon each week. I still love comics, tho it's been years since I've actually bought new new comic, but I still have a little stash of my favorite X-Men comic books I've kept hidden away.

So What is Free Comic Book Day?

Free Comic Book Day is a single day - the first Saturday in May each year - when participating comic book shops across North America and around the world give away comic books absolutely FREE* to anyone who comes into their stores. *Check with your local shop for their participation and rules.
