“Avenue Q” is coming to The Fox Theatre in St. Louis From April 30 to May 2!

AVENUE Q is the 2004 Tony Award® winner for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book. Now the award winning show is returning to the Fabulous Fox theatre in St. Louis, MO for a limited 4 show engagement from April 30 to May 2.

Princeton is a bright-eyed college grad, who moves to NYC with big dreams and a tiny bank account. The only apartment he can afford is way out on Avenue Q, where everyone’s looking for the same things he is: a decent job, a stable relationship, and a “purpose.” Eventually, Princeton learns to embrace the ups and downs of city life and realized that “the real world” isn’t so bad, after all.
