Avenue Q
Avenue Q is back on the block.
After two decades, the three time Tony Award-winning musical Avenue Q returns to the West End in all its glory.
Fresh out of college and searching for his purpose, Princeton ends up in a shabby apartment on New York’s rundown Avenue Q. He quickly meets his new and colourful neighbours where together they navigate the life struggles of work, love and paying the bills in their own hilarious way.
Irreverent, irresistible and at times inappropriate, Avenue Q is the mischievous and charming musical full of infectious songs and loveable characters that will leave you smiling for days.
With original Broadway director Jason Moore (Pitch Perfect, Shrek the Musical) and original puppet designer Rick Lyon, re-discover the fun, fuzz and felt for a strictly limited season this spring.
