Thanks to my husband who purchased the tickets after seeing the show featured on Ace of Cakes, went to the Paramount Theater in Seattle last night to see the absolutely hilarious musical Avenue Q. As the ads for the show say, it's 60% adult situations and 40% foam rubber - like Sesame Street for grown-ups. the show is about a group of muppet-like puppets, monsters, and flesh-and-blood characters living on a street in the New York ghetto called Avenue Q. One of the main characters, Princeton, is a recent college graduate - an English major who can't find a job but is thrilled to be finally finished with college and looking for his purpose in life. One of the human characters? Gary Coleman. This shit is gold.

With musical numbers like "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist" and "It Sucks to Be Me," how could you go wrong? My favorite moment? Violent and loud puppet sex. On stage. Set to music. That's what I'm talking about.
