AVENUE Q

Crest Theatre at Old School Square presents AVENUE Q, winner of the Tony "Triple Crown" for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book. AVENUE Q is part flesh, part felt and packed with heart. Performed by the Carbonell Award-Winning Slow Burn Theatre Co., this is a laugh-out-loud musical that tells the timeless story of a recent college grad named Princeton who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q. He soon discovers that although the residents seem nice, it's clear that this is not your ordinary neighborhood. Together, Princeton and his newfound friends struggle to find jobs, dates, and their ever-elusive purpose in life.

Note: Adult language and subject matter; parental guidance advised.

Location: Crest Theatre at Old School Square

Tickets: $52 & $42

XANADU

Crest Theatre at Old School Square presents XANADU, a Tony Award-nominated, hilarious, musical adventure about following your dreams despite the limitations others set for you. Performed by the Carbonell Award-Winning Slow Burn Theatre Co., the original hit score was composed by pop-rock legends Jeff Lynne and John Farrar. Based on the Universal Pictures' cult classic movie of the same title, which starred Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly, XANADU is hilarity on wheels for adults, children and anyone who has ever wanted to feel inspired. The musical follows the journey of a magical and beautiful Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mt. Olympus to Venice Beach, California in 1980. She is on a quest to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time - the first ROLLER DISCO.

Location: Crest Theatre at Old School Square

Tickets: $52 & $42


Tickets for both hit musicals can be purchased online at www.OldSchoolSquare.org or by calling the Box Office at 561.243.7922, ext. 1.
