Avenue Q (2003 Original Broadway Cast) 

Description

Avenue Q will only fuel the frustration of those who think that Broadway has given up on sophisticated entertainment geared to adults. "Whatever happened to Cole Porter's witty rhymes and mature subject matter?" they'll say. Well, it's hard to deny that Avenue Q's main frame of reference is Sesame Street and that its humor can be very broad--yes, there's profanity and puppet sex. But the show also displays heart ("The More You Ruv Someone" typically begins with "Why can't people get along?") and a pretty satisfying zany streak. Musically, the score is rooted in 1970s pop, with nods to the aforementioned Sesame Street. The excellent cast, dominated by John Tartaglia and Stephanie D'Abruzzo, does it justice, milking the humorous numbers for all they're worth and finding pathos in the more straightforward ones. Not bad for a childish show. --Elisabeth Vincentelli


Customer reviews for 'Avenue Q (2003 Original Broadway Cast)'

«Avenue Q CD»

This CD was supposed to be used, but I got it practically brand new. It was at a super price as well! Thanks so much!

«Muppets Uncensored»

If you think the Muppets were cute then this show will provide you with a look at the uncensored side. The music all by itself is an enjoyable romp even if you are unfamiliar with the Braodway production. A must have for all Theater fans.

«Hysterically Funny»

Avenue Q is hilarious. It's definitely deserving of it's praise. I saw it when it came into town. Definitely not for the kids, but neither are R rated movies.
