Winner of the TONY® “TRIPLE CROWN” (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.
