Stage 62's production of AVENUE Q is looking for a new lyric to replace the words "George Bush" in the song "For Now". The winner will receive two tickets to a performance of AVENUE Q at Stage 62 and hear their lyrics incorporated into the show's finale.


Says director Stephen Santa, "We are permitted, by license, to change this outdated phrase in the lyric. We are looking for something fresh, fun, and possibly even local to Pittsburgh!"


The word (or phrase) should be a person, place or thing--preferably with two syllables.
Here is the original lyric:
Sex - is only for now!
Your hair - is only for now!
George Bush - is only for now!


To submit your entry, please e-mail your new lyric, as well as your name, to avenueQcontest@stage62.org. The deadline for submission is July 8, 2013. The winner will be notified via email.

To hear the winning lyrics, come and see the show! Come see AVENUE Q, the theater event of the summer!
