Some good news for one of The West End’s most loved shows and its inhabitants; the puppets from Avenue Q will be packing their bags once again and moving house! 
It’s been announced that Avenue Q will transfer to the Wyndhams Theatre when it finishes its run at the Gielgud Theatre in March, the show will be occupying is third West End venue; it originally opened at the Noel Coward Theatre in June 2006.
The rude and crude puppets are proving to be very popular with London audiences, unfortunately it’s doesn’t look like they will get a holiday this time as the production is set to transfer immediately after it closes at the Gielgud. It will open at the Wyndhams Theatre on the 19th March 2010.
Looking forward to seeing Trekkie Monster and Lucy the Slut strutting their stuff around Leicester Square Tube station!
Top price Avenue Q tickets are reduced to £32.50 for midweek performances. Book your Avenue Q tickets here.
Looks like the “Last Chance” warnings were a little premature.
Cameron Mackintosh has announced that Avenue Q, the endearing look at life in New York using both puppets and humans to illustrate how life sucks will now transfer to the Gielgud Theatre.
The current run at the Noel Coward Theatre will finish on the 28th March to make way for the highly anticipated stage version of the film Calendar Girls. After a 2 month hiatus, allowing some well deserved down time for the puppets, or perhaps a chance for some internet surfing of the naughty sort, the entire cast will traipse a few blocks North to Shaftesbury Avenue.
Originally opening in the West End in June 2006, Avenue Q has found its place as one of the funniest and crudest of all musicals. It may look like a harmless puppet show, but as the description says “these characters wouldn’t be welcome on Sesame Street.” Best to leave the young kids at home….there’s some puppet sex which may scare even the most well adjusted adult.
Avenue Q will open at the Gielgud Theatre on the 1st June with a booking period to 26th September.
