Avenue Q

Part flesh, part felt and packed with heart, Avenue Q is still the funniest and freshest show. This laugh out loud musical tells the timeless story of a bright eyed college grad named Princeton. When he arrives in New York City with big dreams and a tiny bank account, he has to move into a shabby apartment all the way out on Avenue Q.

Still, the neighbours seem nice. There he meets Kate (the girl next door), Lucy (the sl*t), Rod (the Republican), Trekkie (the internet entrepreneur), superintendent Gary Coleman (yes, that Gary Coleman) and other new friends! Together they struggle to find jobs, dates and their ever elusive purpose in life.

Who is Avenue Q appropriate for?

Adults love Avenue Q but they seem a little, er, fuzzy on whether it’s appropriate for kids. We’ll try to clear that up. Avenue Q is great for teenagers because it’s about real life. It may not be appropriate for young children because Avenue Q addresses issues like sex, drinking and surfing the web for porn. It’s hard to say what exact age is right to see Avenue Q – parents should use their discretion based on the maturity level of their children. But we promise this… if you do bring your teenagers to Avenue Q, they’ll think you’re really cool!
