Introduction
Avenue Q
Since opening a year ago, the cult hit show Avenue Q has been playing to hugely
enthusiastic crowds and standing ovations, proving highly addictive with its legion of
fans coming back to see it over and over! The show is set in a mythical NYC block
occupied by an endearing, oddball collection of people; kooky Christmas Eve and hapless
hubby Brian and puppets: sloppy Nicky, closeted Rod, lost soul Princeton, lovelorn Kate,
porn-happy Trekkie Monster, and bimbo-licious Lucy The Slut! They swear like sailors,
engage in kinky puppet coitus, and even impart valuable and/or absurd life lessons. These
folks wouldn't be at home on Sesame Street -- heck, they wouldn't even be welcome on
Sesame Street. To call it a puppet show does it a disservice, Sesame Street for grown-ups
isn't right either. There's no handy way to describe Avenue Q except as the furriest, and
one of the funniest, shows you're likely ever to see. Avenue Q contains scenes which may
be unsuitable for children under 12. Children under 5 are not admitted. However, it is
safe to say that if you are an adult with a good sense of humour, then Avenue Q is right
up your street!
