LA Community Theatre's Avenue Q is now on stage! Check out the photos below!
This puppet-filled comedy, with music and lyrics by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx and book by Jeff Whitty, Avenue Q is an 'autobiographical and biographical' coming-of-age parable, addressing the issues and anxieties associated with entering adulthood. 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 became an overnight sensation on Broadway in July 2003 following a sold-out engagement and was extended four times after being presented Off-Broadway by Vineyard Theatre and The New Group. Since it roared into the spotlight - with its singular cast of people and puppets including Princeton, Kate Monster, Rod, Nicky, Trekkie, Christmas Eve, Gary Coleman and Lucy T. Slut - opening on Broadway on July 31, 2003, AVENUE Q has given over 6,000 performances, running seven years on Broadway before transferring to New World Stages in 2009, where it continues to play to large and happy houses.

AVENUE Q ist ein Musical uber die skurrilen Bewohner einer fiktiven Straße in einem Randbezirk New York Citys. Alle geben tagtaglich ihr Bestes, um ihrem Leben einen Sinn zu verleihen, einen Job und die große Liebe zu finden - und die ist in der AVENUE Q genauso schon und genauso kompliziert wie anderswo. Vielleicht ist sie sogar noch ein bisschen komplizierter, denn die Bewohner der AVENUE Q sind nur zum Teil Menschen. Überwiegend sind sie Puppen, und deren Ähnlichkeit mit den Stars der „Sesamstraße' ist keineswegs zufallig. Am Theater Hagen erlebt dieses Kult-Stuck derzeit seine NRW-Premiere.
Hier sind nun ein paar erste Eindrucke der Inzenierung:
