I believe Leslie Kritzer plays Alice and Laura Bell Bundy was Trixie in the lab I saw. Very funny musical.

The producers of Avenue Q lobbied the Tony voters, especially the members involved in touring, with the premise that it would be a big tour item and in their best interests.  It edged out Wicked. Ironically, the producers then turned their back on the tour operators and took a deal with Steve Wynn in Las Vegas where he built a theater for them and it became a sit down show at the Wynn that lasted awhile.  Wicked, however, may run for ever or until the world stops manufactu

There is a term called a "fat book" which means the book writer writes the script and places the songs with a brief description of the content of the song, an "I Want" song, a moving the story forward song,  or an emotion takes over song  in a ballad.  Some composers and lyricists, even big names, prefer this as the heavy story lifting is done, they have road maps for the song content, that triggers a song style and off they go.
