The Amazing Spiderman 2 Cleveland Screening

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 (Columbia)
Opening Date: May 2, 2014
Rated: PG 13
Cast: Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, with Paul Giamatti and Sally Field

We’ve always known that Spider-Man’s most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead. It’s great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there’s no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp.

Sesame Street Live: Can’t Stop Singing Cleveland – Through March 23, 2014

Sesame Street Live Cleveland 1
Last night I took my boys on a date to Cleveland to see Sesame Street Live: Can’t Stop Singing!  As we entered into the beautiful State Theater at Playhouse Square, I couldn’t help but notice the gorgeous lobby.  It’s a rare treat to see such an old building still in all it’s glory and fully functioning.  Just look at those chandeliers and that detailed ceiling!

Before heading to our seats we grabbed a few snacks which were moderately priced and browsed the souvenirs.  I really wanted the boys to get the full experience so I was glad that I got there early.

My boys couldn’t wait to get to our seats and were anxious for the show to begin.  As soon as the show started their were squeals and giggles from the crowd as the popular Sesame Street characters took the stage.  Elmo, Abby, Grover, Cookie Monster, Bert, Ernie, Big Bird and all their friends were there and what a fun show it was!

In Sesame Street Live, Can’t Stop Singing, Elmo get’s a hold of Abby Cadabby’s magic wand and turns Sesame Street into a nonstop, all-singing, all-dancing musical montage.  Act after act was filled with songs that had us dancing in our seats and singing right along!  My boys especially loved when the characters came off the stage and started dancing in the rows.  Since our seats were a bit further in the back, it was nice to be able to see the character’s much closer.

This show is perfectly timed at only about an hour and a half with two fun-filled segments and a 15 minute intermission in-between.  Since this is a musical with a very easy to follow story line, even your youngest will be able to enjoy the whole show!

  • Friday, March 21: 10:30 am & 7:00 pm
