Q OBC

Does the OBC of avenue Q have any plans to come back to broadway anytime soon? I saw the show for the 1st time in July with Rick Lyon and loved it. I would love to see the entire OBC. I know Rent did a 5 and ten year union. I'm woundering if Q will do something like that? Does anyone know anything about this

I can't see a reunion, per say, but I could see OBC members coming back.

Rick and Jen are still there.
Stephanie isn't really doing anything.
John is doing this Disney show.
Ann is doing Q at West End.

I could see Stephanie or Ann coming back for a few months or so. Not so much with John, but you never know.

NATALIE is still there too. Rick left and came back. Natalie and Jen are the only two remaining original cast members who have been there from the beginning until now.

When I saw the show with Rick I loved it. But I at the same time wished John and Kate were their. I would pay any amount of money to see the OBC.

According to their website and the publicity shots outside the theatre, Haneefah Wood has replaced Natalie. However, I'm not sure when Natalie left, as it seems to have been a quiet exit.

Umm, when I saw it, it was one of Natalie's last performances. Mid-January I think.

Stephanie is doing that children's musical in the library. Give A Mouse A Cookie or something...

Natalie tends to be shy and not really "open". Even at the stage door, she would stop and sign if you asked her to but she usually kind of hid beneath her hat and walked away.

Probably the same thing when she left. No big announcement or anything...

I saw Avenue Q last on May 28 and NAtalie was in it. So she left sometime after January. The first time I saw the picture outside of the new girl was about 2-3 weeks ago.

Natalie left in the begining of June. John is busy with his Disney show, and starting Nov he'll be in another Broadway show. So he wont be coming back to Ave Q. Maybe they will do some 10 year reunion, but they have time (if they make it to 10), they've only been on Broadway 3 years.

Hanefah Wood is the new Gary Coleman. She's been out a few times already. Carmen Floyd is the standby and she's very good.

John T. is doing his Disney Channel show "Johnny and the Sprites" at Disneyland's Playhouse Disney show for a few weeks in November.

What Broadway show would this be?

That's what I thought. The person from the Las Vegas cast took over, right?

Haneefah Wood was an awesome Gary Coleman, and I do remember her exit being very quiet. All of a sudden she had replaced Natalie.

It would be cool though if the OBC did come back together

He's not going to be on broadway. He's doing a little kid puppet show on Disney Channel called Johnny and the Sprites.

He is going to be on Broadway. Unfortunately I can't say what it is yet. All I can say is that its a comic part in a long running show.
