AVENUE Q Hits Orpheum Theater for One Night Only, 3/16
AVENUE Q is the smash-hit Broadway musical about real life in New York City, as told by a cast of people and puppets through a hilariously irreverent, Tony-winning book and score. Audiences and critics raved about AVENUE Q when it last played Omaha in 2009, so Omaha Performing Arts and Broadway Across America are bringing the three-time Tony Award winning musical back to the Orpheum for one performance only, Wednesday, March 16 at 7:30 p.m.
AVENUE Q tells the story of Princeton, a bright-eyed college grad who moves to NYC with big dreams and a tiny bank account. The only apartment he can afford is way out on Avenue Q, where everyone's looking for the same things he is: a decent job, a stable relationship, and a "purpose." Eventually, Princeton learns to embrace the ups and downs of city life and realizes that "the real world" isn't so bad, after all!
AVENUE Q features music and lyrics by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx, book by Jeff Whitty, based on an original concept by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx; and is directed by Jason Moore; puppet design by Rick Lyon, orchestrations by Stephen Oremus, choreography by Ken Roberson, scenic design by Anna Louizos, costume design by Mirena Rada, lighting design by Howell Binkley, and sound design by Jon Weston; associate director is Evan Ensign and music supervisor is Andrew Graham.
Tickets for AVENUE Q are now on sale starting at $25 and can be purchased at Ticket Omaha in the Holland Performing Arts Center, 13th and Douglas streets, Omaha, Neb.; online at TicketOmaha.com; or by calling 402-345-0606. For group sales call 402-661-8516 or toll-free at 866-434-8587.
Due to adult situations (like full-puppet nudity), AVENUE Q may be inappropriate for kids under 13.
