Avenue Q question

I was sitting in the third row, and knew it was coming, so I held up my money. Natalie (Gary Coleman) instantly came over and from the stage leaned over and I got to put the money in her hat. She gave me a huge smile and a big thumbs up, which was just awesome. No one around me knew what the heck was going on.

If you have money and hold it up, the cast will do what they can to come to you. I think two of the cast members go out into the middle aisle of the orchestra, one or two cast members take care of the first few rows. And I know that the understudies take care of the mezz level - at least they did when Barrett was understudying John.

When I saw it nothing was taken from anyone, but if you have special things to give them during "The Money Song" they will take them, as long as they see it. Just hold it up high!

Hope this helps!

It is fun. I usually wave dollars at Natalie. She gives me a big thumbs up! It is really adorable.
I would love the puppets to take my money, no such luck.

they didnt really give me a choice. barrett took my purse. he gave it back tho

I gave my cash to Ann and Jordan
they were dancing in the aisles

When I went, I was sitting in the front mezz. Like everyone else said, the understudies come up to the mezz w/ puppets and takes donations. At the time i went, Barrett was still the understudy for John. He came up with the Nicky puppet and pretended to steal my little brother's bag from him. I noticed some of the understudies went all the way to the back, so I guess they try to cover as many ppl as possible.
