Mad Cow Theatre Extends AVENUE Q Through July 31

In response to popular demand, Mad Cow Theatre is extending its sold-out production of AVENUE Q on the Harriett stage through July 31. The show was formerly scheduled to end on July 3. The additional show schedule is published on madcowtheatre.com, and the theatre's box office currently has tickets on sale to all additional performances, online or via phone.

Taking on the lessons of life without fluff, the colorful characters who live on AVENUE Q advise their new college-grad friend Princeton on everything from getting a job and finding an apartment to hangovers and internet porn. With unforgettable numbers such as "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist," "If You Were Gay," and "What Do You Do with a B.A. in English?" the Q puppets will have theatergoers rolling in the aisles and coming back for more.

The little off-Broadway puppet musical went on to win Broadway's biggest awards, AVENUE Q was conceived by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx, who wrote the music and lyrics. Jeff Whitty wrote the book. The underdog of its Broadway season won three Tony Awards, including the all-important award for best musical. Whitty won the Tony for best book of a musical, and Lopez and Marx won for best original score. (Lopez went on to co-create The Book of Mormon, Finding Nemo - The Musical and the songs for Disney's Frozen.)
