Raise your hand if, as a kid, you ever leaped for joy when Grover popped on your TV screen during Sesame Street. Keep that hand up if you dressed up like Super Grover, making a cape out of your blanket and a helmet out of a pot. And hold up both hands if you ever injured yourself trying to fly and crash-land like your blue hero. (Okay, maybe that was just us.) The kid in you will be flying high at Super Grover: Ready for Action today. This live show finds Super Grover, with his helmet, cape, lousy landings and all, discovering that he’s lost his “superness” รยขรขยยฌรข?? his mojo, if you will. Fortunately, there’s the Fabulous Five, a Sesame superhero team that helps the furry dude get his groove back รยขรขยยฌรข?? thanks to exercise, sleep and proper hygiene. (And really, who doesn’t need all that?) You’ll love the high-tech stagecraft and clever scripts, so long as you can endure an appearance by, ugh, Elmo.
