On May 17, 2026, families in the Greater Toronto Area will have a delightful reason to get excited as Sesame Street Live – Elmo’s Got the Moves! arrives at the Living Arts Centre in Mississauga. With two performances scheduled — 2:00 p.m. to 3:20 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. to 7:20 p.m. — this lively theatrical experience promises a fun-filled day of music, movement and laughter for children and their grown-ups alike.

A fresh and interactive take on Sesame Street’s beloved characters, Elmo’s Got the Moves! encourages families to jump out of their seats and join in on the fun. The show brings Elmo and his friends to life on stage in an energetic performance that blends song, dance, play and smiles, all designed to inspire movement and imaginative engagement.

From the moment the curtain rises, audiences are invited to participate. Kids and adults can stretch, clap, wiggle and groove along to fan-favourite tunes like “Sunny Days,” “Elmo’s Got the Moves” and “Letter of the Day.” The production highlights a variety of ways to be active — from silly dance routines and jumping rope to playful cartwheels and gentle yoga-inspired movements — making it a perfect blend of entertainment and wholesome activity.

What sets Elmo’s Got the Moves! apart from a typical children’s performance is its emphasis on shared experiences. The show is crafted not just as a theatrical spectacle but as an opportunity for families to create joyful memories together. Whether it’s laughing along as Cookie Monster tries a new dance move or joining Big Bird in a group activity, the experience encourages connection, laughter and playful learning that extends beyond the stage.

Parents can also appreciate the inclusive atmosphere — the show welcomes audience participation in a safe and friendly environment that’s suitable for a wide range of ages. While especially geared towards younger children, the enthusiastic pace and interactive elements make it enjoyable for everyone in the family.

With two convenient showtimes on May 17, the Living Arts Centre provides an ideal setting for this magical Sesame Street adventure. Come early, grab your tickets, and be ready to sing, dance and play with some of your favourite furry friends. This is one performance season pass holders and casual theatre goers won’t want to miss!
