About This Event
Avenue Q returns to the West End for a strictly limited spring season at the Shaftesbury Theatre in London. This three-time Tony Award-winning musical combines irreverent comedy with original songs to explore adult-oriented themes within a parody of Sesame Street. The production follows Princeton, a recent graduate searching for his purpose, as he navigates work, love, and paying bills alongside his colourful neighbours. Created with original Broadway director Jason Moore and puppet designer Rick Lyon, the show brings its unique blend of puppets and human actors to the stage on 19 November 2026.
