Avenue Q Review 05/19

Posted: 6/1/08 at 9:56pm

This review will not make me popular but I was disappointed with Avenue Q.

In fairness I have to say that I was very tired and think that I had delayed jetlag. I believe that this must have affected my enjoyment.

The cast was great; Howie Michael Smith is a real cutie and was great in all of his charaters.

I found some of the lyrics very funny, but for some reason the show on a whole just didn't wow me the way I was expecting it to.

If I had the chance to see it again one day I would, just so that I could give it a second shot.

I definitely agree with you. I saw it about two or three weeks ago for the second time and the energy doesn't seem to be in the performance. I felt there was no cohesiveness to the show like it did the first time. It's a great show but I think the actors have been in it too long because I feel they are tired of the show. Maybe because the theatre was half empty could have been a factor. Idk

I just saw the show on tour a few weeks ago and thought it was great. I felt like they were performing it for the first time. That's the beauty of theatre, though. Getting different performances and different energy every night. :)
