AVENUE Q & A Part I

So, you may be asking "Exactly what is AVENUE Q about?"  Well, you've come to the right place to find that out!  The next few blog entries we will be talking all about AVENUE Q and the interesting people that live there.  Feel free to comment with additional questions or let us know about your experience with AVENUE Q!

What is AVENUE Q about?

AVENUE Q tells the story of Princeton, a bright-eyed college grad who moves to NYC with big dreams and a tiny bank account. The only apartment he can afford is way out on Avenue Q, where everyone's looking for the same things he is: a decent job, a stable relationship, and a "purpose." Eventually, Princeton learns to embrace the ups and downs of city life and realizes that "the real world" isn't so bad, after all!

Is AVENUE Q just a grown up version of Sesame Street?

No.  There should never be a comparison between Sesame Street or Jim Henson’s Children’s Television Workshop and AVENUE Q.  Rather, AVENUE Q is homage to all children’s television teaching life lessons for adults such as paying bills, getting a job and finding love.

Is AVENUE Q a puppet show for children?         

Due to adult situations (like full-puppet nudity), AVENUE Q may not be appropriate for kids under 16.  Parental guidance is suggested.
