The Duluth Play Ground Presents AVENUE Q, 1/19-2/11
The Duluth Play Ground presents the Tony Award-Winning musical AVENUE Q. It will perform on Jan. 19-21, 26-28, Feb. 2-4, 9-11 at 7:30 p.m. and Jan. 21, 28, Feb. 4, 11 at 11 p.m. Tickets are $20 and can be purchased at http://www.duluthplayhouse.org/.
Avenue Q has Music and Lyrics by Robert Lopez & Jeff Marx and a Book by Jeff Whitty. Avenue Q is the hilarious and heartfelt story of a bright-eyed college grad who comes to New York with big dreams and little money. He can only afford to live on Avenue Q but—good news!—his neighbors turn out to be a remarkably funny bunch of characters.
Avenue Q is an "autobiographical and biographical" coming-of-age parable, addressing and satirizing the issues and anxieties associated with entering adulthood. Its characters lament that as children, they were assured by their parents, and by children's television programs such as PBS's Sesame Street, that they were "special" and "could do anything"; but as adults, they have discovered to their surprise and dismay that in the real world their options are limited, and they are no more "special" than anyone else.
This Show contains mature content.
The Play Ground is an alternative performing arts venue offering engaging, thought-provoking programming in all disciplines – theatre, dance, music, poetry, art, film and the spoken word. The Play Ground serves as a home for emerging and experienced artists alike and reflects the vibrant artistic community of Duluth and northeastern Minnesota.
The Duluth Play Ground is located at 11 E. Superior Street, Duluth, MN 55802. For more information call 218-733-7555 or visit http://www.duluthplayhouse.org/.
