Avenue Q

Avenue Q
I was lucky enough to see Avenue Q last Wednesday night -- some former coworkers found an awesome deal for 2-for-1 orchestra seats. We were in the 3rd row!

For those not familiar with New York, Avenue Q and the Q train do not actually exist. In the show, it is a street probably in one of the outer boroughs of the city.

It was hilarious. The characters in the show are half puppets/muppets (controlled by people), and half human. The dialogue and songs were so clever, and more than a little risque. Not a show for children (even with the puppets) - with witty commentary on sex, racism, homeosexuality, poverty, life, and the purpose of said life. And even while entertaining, and seriously I laughed throughout almost the entire show, it is highly relatable for people trying to make it in the "real world".

Anyway, I had a great time, and here's a little promo video for anyone who is interested:
