AVENUE Q is the hit Broadway musical about real life in New York City, as told by a cast of people and puppets through a hilariously irreverent, Tony® Award-winning book and score. The three-time Tony® Award winner, including Best Musical, will make its Miami debut at The Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County May 13 - 18, 2008.
Broadway In Chicago is proud to present the Chicago premiere of Avenue Q - the Tony Award-winning smash-hit musical about trying to make it in New York with big dreams and a tiny bank account. Avenue Q will play for a limited three-week engagement from May 21 - June 7, 2008 at the Cadillac Palace Theatre (151 W. Randolph St) as part of its national tour.
The residents of AVENUE Q will appear on Food Network's popular television program ACE OF CAKES on the March 27, 2008 episode at 10:30 PM ET. While at Baltimore's Hippodrome Theatre, the cast and crew of Ace of Cakes and the cast and crew of the touring production of AVENUE Q filmed an episode of Ace of Cakes during which Chef Duff Goldman unveiled a customized AVENUE Q cake that depicts the Tony Award-winning musical's characters. To see the AVENUE Q cake tune into Food Network on Thursday, March 27 at 10:30 PM EST! (The national tour of AVENUE Q will be playing at the Fox Theater in Atlanta on March 27.) Ace of Cakes, a primetime series airing on Food Network, chronicles the misadventures of Chef Duff Goldman. Goldman is a master cake decorator, rock musician, power tool aficionado and owner of Charm City Cakes. He has created everything from a three-foot buttercream sculpture of Elvis to a massive edible replica of Wrigley Field. These cakes are not only pretty, but they work- a car engine that shoots fireworks, a motorized horse, and a rolling replica of a Jeep Wrangler. 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, the Tony Award winning Musical, continues a successful North American Tour and is now in its 5th year on Broadway in New York at the Golden Theatre (252 W. 45 St.).
