Avenue Q for Greenwich Theatre run prior to UK Tour

It has been announced that Sell A Door are staging the Tony Award-winning musical comedy Avenue Q later this year. The production will open at the Greenwich Theatre on Monday 28th April 2014 (previews from 23rd April) and run until Sunday 11th May 2014 before touring the UK for ten weeks until August 2014.

Avenue Q premiered in 2003 Off-Broadway at the Vineyard Theatre before transferring to Broadway later that year. It won the Tony for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book. Cameron Mackintosh  brought the show to the West End in 2006 where it ran for five years. Most recently Avenue Q was staged at Upstairs at the Gatehouse and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Sell A Door's Artistic Director David Hutchinson said: “This is our third major musical production following Spring Awakening in 2011 and Seussical in 2012 & 2013. I have every faith that this parable, which so cleverly pokes fun at the issues young people face going into adulthood, will strike a chord with audiences up and down the country.”
