1 Would not see it again and not appropriate for children under 16  Review by: Broadway fan, Jun 14, 2010
It seems to be a dirty comedy. I did not like it and I am truly sorry that I brought my 11 year old child with me. Music and lyrics were OK, but I can't believe it was a Broadway show before. It is OK for off-off Broadway.
My recommendation:

2 Don't bother  Review by: , May 15, 2010
This show was probably the worst that I've ever seen. It was unnecessarily vulgar and crude. I saw no point to any of it. The group that I was with left at intermission. I'm very disappointed that this was a part of Best of Braodway.

3 Either the Funniest Dirty Musical or Dirtiest Funny Musical. Ever.  Review by: DoctorJoeE, May 10, 2010
This was my 4th or 5th Avenue Q experience -- I've lost count. But for me, it gets better every time, because just like each successive viewing of Blazing Saddles, you pick up jokes that you missed, or forgot about, or just wanted to hear yet again. And like Blazing Saddles, the story is so silly that it's great.
And now that the production has returned to Off-Broadway, from whence it came, the experience is, if anything, better. ... read more

4 Really Freakin' Great Show!  Review by: Kayla, Apr 15, 2010
Avenue Q was great! I don't get out to see a ton of plays, but I would love to see this one again, and more like it. It was hilarious, actors are so very talented, I was laughing the whole time. My boyfriend, who rarly goes to a play, was almost out of his seat in laughter! GO SEE IT!

8 Hillarious and Definatly a must see!  Review by: , Feb 15, 2010
They should rename this musical Avenue 'A' because it would definatly be rewarded an A++ in my book! This show is witty, hillarious, the set is amazing (the floor on the stage is concrete), the actors were well thought picked, the idea and songs are so good, you double check to see if your life can be any worst! Outstanding, 5 star tony winning cast, crew, soundtrack, set...heck even the audience plays some part in the play! This is a MUST SEE ... read more

9   Review by: bigqfan, Jan 2, 2010
I just purchased my 7th ticket. In fact, during my last visit to NYC, I saw it back to back. I love this show from start to finish. It's pure fun!! Oddly,though, the other seniors that I've noticed also seem to find it hysterically funny, whereas I've seen some younger folks look embarrassed at times. So definately not a show for prudes.

10 Do not waste your time.  Review by: jackngator, Dec 10, 2009
I'm no prude and I'll laugh at a good joke but this show was crass and really not funny. When the show was over - less than 20% of the audiance bothered to stand for the ovation. I've seen 5 shows in the last 12 months and this was by far the worst. The music was average, the lyrics were not good at all.
The set was excellent - very well thought out.

12 What a great time!  Review by: tuttle, Aug 24, 2009
This show is hilarious and so much fun! It is definately worth seeing before it ends its broadway run. You have to know what you are getting into before hand however, and I think that previous reviewers who didn't like it just didn't know what to expect. If you have a good sense of humor, can handle a few curse words now and then, and want to have some fun laughing about the unfairness of life, then go see this show! The songs are so funny, ... read more

13 Great to see Once and Only Once!  Review by: Jeff, Aug 9, 2009
My partner and I decided to see Ave Q since it was closing soon, and actual got exactly what we expected out of the experience. If you have listened to the Cast Album-- there is no need to see the show. It was entertaining and we enjoyed it- but we were so glad we got deeply discounted tickets because it was not worth full ticket price. The jokes are funny, ONCE. I can't imagine seeing it again. I am appalled that it won the Tony over Wicked! If ... read more

14 A Show With a Very Good Point! Definitely a Wonderful Show.  Review by: Irish Fireman's Wife, Jul 13, 2009
This is by all means, fun, enjoyable ADULT entertainment and I left laughing and feeling like I've just had the best time at a Broadway show that I've ever had. The talent of not just the actors, but the writers, producers, directors, musicians, it all adds up to a wonderful experience. It also brings a fresh reminder that the whole point of the story is that no matter who you are, there's no reason why you can't be nice to your neighbor,... read more

15 AMAZING!  Review by: Tay, Jul 10, 2009
One of the best broadway shows I've seen in my life. True some of the things they say are blunt, but that's what makes this show so hilarious. The sheer uniqueness of this show is beyond compare. This so will have you laughing outloud throughout the entire day. I've seen it twice and will deffinatley be seeing it again. As for the people who suggest that this show is stupid and pointless, my statement to you is, "That's why Avenue Q beat out ... read more
