Day Twenty-Four: Avenue Q

Today's post is a musical that makes me laugh, which is Avenue Q. (Book of Mormon also belongs here, but I already used it on Day Two.)

For those of you who haven't heard of Avenue Q, it's basically a rated-R version of the popular TV show "Sesame Street" (mainly because of the puppetry.)

One puppet is trying to figure out his 'purpose' in life, while wooing the affections of another. One puppet is trying to figure out if his puppet roommate is gay (which he is). There's Gary Coleman, who's played by a female for some reason, and a regular guy who paid for a Japanese mail-order bride named Christmas Eve. Here's the rest of the synopsis: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avenue_q)

(I'm sorry I haven't been doing my usual posts; I virtually have no time now!)

I'll play for you one of my favorites, "Everyone's A Little Bit Racist" (which I feel as though it's true: the two puppets, Kate and Princeton, are the ones that fall in love.)
