Book Avenue Q Tickets Today! ![]() Avenue Q is a musical that was conceived by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx, who wrote the music and lyrics. The show was originally produced at the Off-Broadway Vineyard Theatre in March 2003. The successful production then transferred to Broadway in July 2003 and won several Tony Awards, including Best Musical. The show is largely inspired by, and in the style of Sesame Street. Most of the characters in the stage production are puppets (operated by actors onstage, the set depicts several tenements on a rundown street in New York City. The live characters and puppet characters sing, and short animated video clips are played in various parts of the theatre, as part of the story. Also, several characters are recognizably parodies of Sesame Street characters. The characters in Avenue Q are however in their twenties and thirties and face adult problems instead of those faced by a typical Sesame Street audience. The characters use profanity, and most of the songs contain adult themes. A recurring theme is the central character's search for a "purpose." The stage show is essentially for those that are in their teens or older. AVENUE Q was the winner of the 2004 TONY AWARD® for BEST NEW MUSICAL, BEST BOOK OF A MUSICAL and BEST ORIGINAL SCORE! | Find Available Dates: View Show Times and Seating Options: Tickets at Best PricesAvenue Q London Show Information Booking Now!
