Toronto, ON - Wednesday, December 30, 2011... Get ready to “laugh-out-loud” because the Lower Ossington Theatre (LOT) will be wrapping their premiere fall/winter season with the wildly hilarious and much anticipated, “Avenue Q”. ”Sesame Street meets South Park”, the musical hit will be directed by Seanna Kennedy and choreographed by Amelia Hironaka. After his standing “O”- worthy performance as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in the LOT’s recent production of “The Rocky Horror Show”, Adam Norrad will be returning as Trekkie Monster. Presenting live on stage at the Lower Ossington Theatre (LOT), 100A Ossington Avenue, this performance will run from January 18 to February 4.
Winner of the TONY® “TRIPLE CROWN” for BEST MUSICAL, BEST SCORE and BEST BOOK, "Avenue Q" tells the story of Princeton, a bright-eyed college grad who moves to New York City with big dreams and a tiny bank account. Unfortunately, the only apartment he can afford is way out on Avenue Q, where everyone is looking for the same things he is: a decent job, a stable relationship, and a 'purpose'. Join Princeton as he learns to embrace the ups and downs of city life and realizes that "The Real World" isn't so bad after all.
This acclaimed broadway performance has been hailed by The New York Times as a "breakthrough musical...savvy, sassy and delicious." Entertainment Weekly claimed it was "one of the funniest shows you're ever likely to see!"
Warning: Due to adult situations, like full-puppet nudity, “Avenue Q” may be inappropriate for young children
