Playhouse on Park Opens Season with AVENUE Q

Playhouse on Park opens Season Nine Mainstage Series with musical comedy Avenue Q, music and lyrics by Jeff Marx and Robert Lopez and book by Jeff Whitty. Opening night is Friday, September 15 at 8pm, with a wine and cheese reception beforehand.

Winner of the Tony Triple Crown for Best Musical, Best Score, and Best Book, this puppet-filled comedy (fit for adults only) tells the timeless story of a recent college grad, Princeton, who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q. The story dives into work, relationships and purpose through witty dialogue and charming music. Hartt School Musical Theater Alum Kyle Brand returns to the Playhouse to direct Avenue Q.

Avenue Q runs through October 8, with previews on September 13 and 14. All preview seats are only $17.50! This show offers a specially priced Tuesday matinee on Tuesday, September 26, at 2:00pm. All seats for this performance are only $22.50 per person, reserved seating. Additionally, a free Open Mic night is scheduled for Saturday, September 23 after the show! Every Sunday matinee includes a talk back with the cast.

Individual tickets are now on sale, ranging from $40 to $50, all seats reserved. Seniors, Students, and Let's Go Arts Member discounts are available.
