AVENUE Q is a gut-bustingly hilarious modern musical focusing on a group of unique 20- somethings making their way in the big city, seeking their purpose in life. Although the show addresses humorous adult issues, it is similar to a beloved children's show; a place where puppets are friends, Monsters are good and life lessons are learned. Winner of the Tony "Triple Crown" for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book, AVENUE Q is part flesh, part felt, and packed with heart. AVENUE Q is a laugh-out-loud musical that tells the timeless story of a recent college grad named Princeton who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q. He soon discovers that although the residents seem nice, it's clear that this is not your ordinary neighborhood. Together, Princeton and his new-found friends struggle to find jobs, dates, and their ever-elusive purpose in life. WARNING: Adult language, themes, and puppet nudity. Book by Jeff Whitty. Based on the original concept by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx.
Directed by Travis Malone, Music Direction by Cristina Loyola, Choreography by Stephanie Greeves & Desiree Frogosa. Production is part of VWU Alumni Weekend.
