I’d like to dedicate this show to a few groups of people: The performers and crew: it takes a talented cast and crew of people to bring these amazing characters to life and have done so well in the past 40 years. Performers bring these wonderful characters to the stage with their never ending energy and commitment and the crew does everything in its power to make sure the show runs the way it does. As a former crew member (for High School Lighting), I appreciate everything they do. The fans: I think what made this show a reality was all of the fans of this iconic touring brand was thanks to fans around the world. Vincent E. Egan: you brought to us a revolutionary idea that family entertainment can be more than ice shows and circuses. The live shows are going strong to this day, thank you once again for creating such a wonderful new genre of entertainment. And finally, Caroll Spinney. You brought a kindhearted bird to life for almost 50 years, and you did so with such class. You are such a talented person and thanks for making all of our childhoods amazing.
