Bobby and I went to see this musical last night. It is widely described as “Sesame Street for adults,” and I think that description is pretty accurate. It’s a mixture of actors and puppets entertaining you for a HILARIOUS two hours.
Click here to listen to bobby’s favourite song from the show: Schadenfreude (I couldn’t find any decent video, so this is just the song).
If you find that Avenue Q is playing somewhere near you, I can really not recommend it enough. I live in the theatre capital of the world, and work only moments from West End, and I think that this is the greatest theatrical achievement of all time (this, along with me thinking that Mac n Cheese is the greatest culinary invention of all time, could say something about my level of taste, but we won’t go there now). Sure, Romeo and Juliet is great and very romantic, but give me something I can RELATE to- like Avenue Q’s theme of a 20-something lost in the world now that he’s graduated from college and realized that he has no purpose in his life and that most people never find that purpose.
Really, drop everything you’re doing and go now. You won’t regret it.
On a side note- I am having so much fun enjoying all of the aspects of London I have had to avoid for the last year and a half (like going to shows) because my health would not allow me to take pleasure in them!! So thankful to be feeling better!!
