Written by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx, with a book by Jeff Whitty, Avenue Q is a mischievous and raucous musical which has a huge following around the world. Fresh out of college and searching for his purpose, Princeton ends up in a shabby apartment on New York's rundown Avenue Q. He quickly meets his new and colourful neighbours where together they navigate the life struggles of work, love and paying the bills in their own hilarious way. Tickets for Avenue Q are available now with performances from March 20 to August 29, 2026. The show will run at a reduced capacity as the Shaftesbury Theatre will be undergoing refurbishment work.
