Elmo's World Live is a stage show at Sesame Place featuring walk-around versions of the Sesame Street Muppets voiced by their original performers via pre-recording. It ran from 2001-2014.
Elmo's World Live!, based on the popular Elmo's World segment from Sesame Street, opened at Sesame Place in 2001 in Sesame Studio. The show replaced the Sesame Studio show, The Amazing Adventures of Elmo and Zoe.
In the first version of Elmo's World Live! (2001-2006), Elmo explored the concept of dance -- what can and cannot dance, and especially the many different types of dance. Selected guests in the audience were able to join Elmo on stage with his friends Dorothy and Mr. Noodle's Nephew. As of 2005, there had been over 3,500 performances of the show. [1]
In 2007 the show was revamped, with a new script and theme: Fish. This version ran until 2010. The show returned to the original Dancing theme from 2011-2014.
