SBCC Presents AVENUE Q, Now thru 7/28

By:

The Theatre Group at SBCC returns to performing in the newly renovated Garvin Theatre with the irreverent musical AVENUE Q, set for tonight, July 11 through July 28, 2012.

AVENUE Q is a laugh-out-loud musical that tells the timeless story of a recent college grad named Princeton who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q. He soon discovers that although the residents seem nice, it’s clear that this is not your ordinary neighborhood. Together, Princeton and his new-found friends struggle to mix jobs, dates, and their ever-elusive purpose in life. AVENUE Q mixes puppets with human characters to teach lessons that are definitely not for children. It contains adult language and material.

AVENUE Q has music and lyrics by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx, book by Jeff Whitty, based on an original concept by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx. It will be directed by Rick Mokler with musical direction by David Potter. It features Guest Artist Ryan Murray as Princeton, and Katherine Brady as Christmas Eve. Rounding out the cast will be Daniel Herrera, Sean Jackson, Emily E. Jewell, Janina Mason, Miguel Miranda, Tad Murroughs, Willie Simpson, Amanda Terman and Katie Thatcher.

Performances will be July 13-28, 2012 with previews tonight, July 11 and tomorrow night, July 12, Thursday through Saturday @ 7:30pm, Sunday @ 2pm, Previews at 7:30pm. Ticket prices: Previews $16 general/$13 seniors/$8 students, Friday and Saturday evenings $23 general/$18 seniors/$15 students, Thursday evenings and Sunday matiness $21 general/$16 seniors/$12 students. Call the Garvin Theatre Box Office at 965-5935 or go to www.theatregroupsbcc.com for reservations and information.

The 2012/2013 season of The Theatre Group at SBCC will be AVENUE Q, AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY, PRESENT LAUGHTER, and BECKY'S NEW CAR.
