OK Review by: BDRose, Jan 31, 2013 |
| Pretty good show - not as raunchy as expected. A+ if you get a discount, not so sure I would pay full price for this. |

Terrible Review by: Greg M, Jun 26, 2012 |
| I don't mind edgy, offensive or crude content. But Avenue Q is crude for the sake of being crude - it's forced and doesn't advance the plot at all. The songs about racism, sex, porn etc come off like they were written by a group of middle school kids who just learned the seven dirty words. Avenue Q is not bold or imaginative, it is more crass and trite than a bevis and butthead episode. If you see the first 10 minutes, you've seen it all.... read more. Extremely uncomfortable to see with my parents. |

Trashy and not funny Review by: Steve, Mar 25, 2012 |
| WORST off Bway show..worst Bway show ever. It was senseless and meangingless play. Two muppets having sex, issues about gay. It was like an r rated of Sesame Street. Please do not waste your time seeing this trash. |

A Good NIght Review by: Lisa, Feb 11, 2012 |
| I went into this show not expecting much. Ended up liking it a lot more than I thought I would. The first half of the show is a bit racier than the second half of the show. If you actually watch the show there are actually some good morals displayed. The actress who plays Kate Monster was excellent! |

Couldn't Figure It Out Review by: Mer, Nov 23, 2011 |
| Not sure if it was just me, but I couldn't decide if I should be looking at the actor's face or the puppet. It gave me a headache. We actually left during the intermission, so we sat through half of it, and couldn't really tell you what it was about. Sexual preference, finding your way or poor Gary Coleman! |

Best Musical I Ever Seen Review by: Chubby Theater Goer, Oct 27, 2011 |
| This is absolutely the best musical which is now off-Broadway. You will laugh like you never laugh before. I have never been at a show where the entire audience is just rotfl. The current cast is actually even more talented than the original cast and there is added nuances and changes that make the current production better than the original production on Broadway. Veronica Kuehn who does Kate Monster and the voices and singing ... read more of other characters is extremely talented and wonderful and just a joy to watch. A lot of people dismiss this show because the characters are puppets but these puppets have a lot heart...much more than some of the human characters you see in other shows and this is mostly due to an impeccable witty script with amazingly talented puppeteers than can really sing. Remember, this is the show that beat Wicked for Best Musical. Not an easy task as the latter has been #1 in the box office like forever. |

This is muppets for adults. Understanding that, it is an excellent show. The cast is made up of extremely talented performers. Veronica Kuehn's performance is particularly stand-out.

Mixed bag! Review by: NB11, Nov 29, 2010 |
| Funny show that is a little racy and politically incorrect. I prefer a more traditional broadway musical. This show is mainly puppets who say and do "sexual" things. Glad I saw it but it is not a "must see." |

Please, parents. Take a little responsibility. Review by: , Nov 27, 2010 |
If I see another "I just brought my 11-year-old daughter and this show was so misleading and inappropriate" review, I'm going drop kick someone. The show is FOR ADULTS. If parents would do a little research (seriously, just a *little*) they'd know this beforehand. But nooo, blame the theater, blame the writers, blame friggin' Canada. Anything to justify your shock, anger, disbelief, and outrage. THE AVENUE Q SITE ITSELF HAS A DISCLAIMER IN THE ... read more FAQ. What more can the Avenue Q producers do for you? Parents, quit being so naive. The world doesn't crap lollipops and rainbows. Take a little responsibility and research what you are (yes, what *YOU* are) making your children watch. This show for anyone who's graduated college with starry-eyed dreams of changing the world only to have them crushed by the harshness of the real world. There is a positive message towards the end and a lot of valuable lessons for young adults. This production, through it's witty and warts-and-all portrayal of most post-grads' struggles, teaches you that, yes, the real world can suck; but it's only temporary. Please see this if you've recently graduated or if you are someone older who's been through it already. You will get a good laugh out of it. I'm GLAD this won a Tony. |

A MUST SEE. Review by: gina, Oct 10, 2010 |
| I was laughing from start to finish.I can hardly stand for the ovation as my stomach was aching from laughing.It is a joke which is really happening in real life.For those who find the joke dirty was not true to themselves and is on denial.It is a must see.You'll die laughing. |

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. |
