Sesame Street comes to town

Families and kids of all ages can watch their favourite Sesame Street characters perform live alongside professional circus performers in Watergardens this month.

Elmo’s Circus Dream Live director Damian Syred said the show follows the story of a sleeping Elmo.

“It’s all about Elmo’s dream,” he said. “He falls asleep and takes you on an adventure about finding where he fits in the circus.”

When asked for more details about Elmo’s journey, Mr Syred said he didn’t want to give too much away.

“You’ll have to see the show to see what Elmo’s act is,” he said.

Elmo appears alongside other Sesame Street friends including Cookie Monster, Abby, Grover, and Bert and Ernie.

The show features all sorts of circus acts — from daredevil motorcycle stunts to aerialist acts to illusions and magic tricks.

Mr Syred said the performance is captivating for all audiences, regardless of age.

“We just finished up our first season in Caulfield,” he said. “We had a great response from families in that area.

“There’s really something for everyone. It’s a good way to get out of the house, take the family and experience something you’ve probably never seen before.

“We are excited and anticipating great things.”

Elmo’s Circus Dream Live, produced by Circus Royale and Showtime Attractions, will be performed under the big top at Watergardens Town Centre, Taylors Lakes, from August 8 to 31.

Ticket prices range from $25 to $55 with options for VIP passes and family packages.
