Avenue Q

Really enjoyed this show and I have to say that Trekkie Monster and the Bad Idea Bears were my favourite characters.

If you have ever watched Sesame Street, this show if full of funny adult references, and has some poignant and definitely wind up moments.

Its only on in Sydney for another week http://avenueqthemusical.com.au and then it tours around Australia. But I reckon its definitely worth seeing.

Info on the show from the website. I know this blurb sounds like I am being paid, but I am not and was surprised that the people I mentioned the show to, knew hardly anything about it.

"I've been waiting and waiting and waiting for AVENUE Q to finally get to Australia," said creator, Robert Lopez. "Not just because I've never been and I've always wanted to die in a Great White shark attack, but because I've always suspected that Aussies would really love AVENUE Q!"

AVENUE Q, written by Jeff Whitty, with music by Robert Lopez and lyrics by Jeff Marx, first debuted in 2002 with an off-Broadway run. The show went on to beat favourite WICKED to win three of the top Tony Awards in 2004: Best Musical, Best Original Score of a Musical and Best Book of a Musical.
