We've just returned from the Noel Coward Theatre at Leicester Square. Garry shouted tickets to Avenue Q for my birthday tonight. The production can best be described as an adult's version of Sesame Street. It's hilarious.
I can't name any other musical with songs quite like; It Sucks to be Me, If You Were Gay, The Internet is for Porn or Everyone's a Little Bit Racist. The show even contains some rather graphic fur-on-fur action with a puppet sex scene that leaves little to the imagination. My favourite line of the night came from Mrs. Thistletwat, a moralising, bespectacled spinster puppet who boldly retorted that,"Crabby old bitches are the bedrock of this nation."
Garry secured excellent centrally positioned seats in the stalls, three rows from the stage. The seats immediately in front of us were also vacant for the entire evening affording an uninterrupted view of the stage. A great night out.
