My favorite musical plays it's 2000 tonight.

From Playbill.com:
The Jeff Marx-Bobby Lopez musical is now the 25th longest-running production in Broadway history, having already surpassed the original runs of South Pacific (1,925) and Pippin (1,944).

The Broadway company currently features Jennifer Barnhart (Mrs. T, Bear and others), Nicholas Kohn (Brian), Ann Sanders (Christmas Eve), Matt Schreiber (Trekkie Monster, Nicky, Bear and others), Rashidra Scott (Gary Coleman), Howie Michael Smith (Princeton, Rod) and Sarah Stiles (Kate Monster, Lucy and others).

About the June 3 performance, Avenue Q denizen Rod, the Republican investment banker, said in a statement, "I think those of us who live and work on 'The Ave' always knew we would reach this fabulous milestone. People love our show and we love doing it! In fact, 2,000 almost equals the number of chorus boys who have visited my dressing room since Avenue Q landed on Broadway. You wouldn't believe how many unmatched leg warmers I have stacked in the corner."

Rod's co-star, Lucy added, "2,000 is impressive, yeah, but it's just half the number of sailors who dropped into my dressing room — during Fleet Week alone."

This is great, especially because it is 1950 more performances than anyone thought it would play...

Congratulations!
