North Shore Theatre Company (NSTC) is ready to send its loyal audience
into side-splitting laughter when it brings puppet musical comedy Avenue Q to The Independent Theatre, North
Sydney from 26 April to 4 May.
Winner of the Tony Triple
Crown for Best Musical, Best Score, and Best Book, the hilarious Avenue Q tells the timeless story of a recent
college graduate trying to find his way in the world.
Set
in New York City we are introduced to fresh-faced Princeton as he struggles to
find his purpose: meeting friends, finding love, losing love, and finding it
again along the way. Inspired by the beloved children’s show Sesame Street, Avenue Q
creates a puppet-filled world that is a little more reflective of the
difficult, R-rated realities that we face upon learning that real life isn’t as
simple as we dreamed it might be – but perhaps, suggests Avenue Q,
life is all the more colourful and worthwhile for it.
This critically-acclaimed
musical is strictly for adults only despite featuring puppets and is R-rated, containing
adult topics, offensive language, and an onstage portrayal of puppet sex.
