Elmo has raised his sunflower, Sunny, from a seed, but his floral friend has outgrown the flower pot. Elmo and friends find Big Bird's garden the ideal place for Sunny to flourish and grow but they are too excited to wait. Rather than let Sunny follow nature's course, Abby Cadabby, Sesame Street's fairy-in-training, casts a spell to make Sunny grow. The spell does just the opposite and, instead of growing, Elmo and all of his friends shrink! While Abby searches for just the right words to reverse the spell, Elmo, Zoe, Telly and friends explore Big Bird's garden from a smaller perspective and learn some big lessons about patience, overcoming their fears and appreciating the role that each creature plays in our ecosystem - from dancing ladybugs and beautiful butterflies to grouchy beetles that scavenge the garden floor. Will being small help Sunny grow tall? It's a fresh, original Sesame Street Live on a whole new scale! Live at Bojangles Coliseum various times November 12-15.

Lincoln Center Theater, in association with Bob Boyett and NETworks Productions, presents a new production of Richard Rodgers & Oscar Hammerstein's prize-winning musical classic SOUTH PACIFIC, directed by Bartlett Sher. Based on James Michener's Pulitzer Prize winning book Tales of the South Pacific, Rodgers & Hammerstein's SOUTH PACIFIC has music by Richard Rodgers, lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II and a book by Oscar Hammerstein II and Joshua Logan.
Set on a tropical island during World War II, SOUTH PACIFIC tells the sweeping romantic story of two couples -- US Navy nurse Nellie Forbush & French plantation owner Emile de Becque and Navy Airman Joe Cable & a young local native girl Liat -- and how their happiness is threatened by the realities of the war and by their own prejudices. Considered by many the finest musical ever written, the score's songs include such musical theater classics as "Some Enchanted Evening," "Younger Than Springtime," "Bali Ha'i," "There is Nothin' Like A Dame" and "A Wonderful Guy." Belk Theater various times November 10-15. For more information, visit www.blumenthalcenter.org

Chick-Fil-A introduced the hand-spun Peppermint Chocolate Chip Milkshake in 2008. For those of you who tried it (and loved it similar to myself), it is back again for a limited time. It hit restaurants again today and I imagine will stick around the end of the year. As good as Chick-Fil-A's sandwiches are, I recommend you skip the sandwich and just have the shake for lunch. It is well worth the splurge! Don't wait to long and miss the chance to try this.
