Shepherd University Music Department put on the Tony-Winning
musical Avenue Q. It was fantastic!
The cast was amazingly talented. It’s hard to believe they are just students.
Avenue Q is a hilarious musical that touches on real life issues,
like graduating from college and becoming an adult, which is easily relatable
to my life now. The show has a mix of humans and puppet characters like Kate
the girl next door, Rod the Republican, Trekkie the Internet sexpert, and Lucy
the slut, who all are helping Princeton, a recent college graduate (with B.A. in
English) find his purpose in life. It is basically just the grown up version of
Sesame Street.
I ended up seeing the show twice, because it was that good.
You can’t help but enjoy every moment. My favorite songs are “It Sucks to Be
Me” and “Everyone’s a Little Bit Racist”.
I love how the show takes the more taboo things in life and just throws
them all out there in the open, but I guess it’s ok to have full on sex scene
if they are puppets right? Now enjoy the video below of the Broadway Cast singing "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist".
