Avenue Q, the hit musical featuring a mix of people and puppets, will kick off its national tour, August 7 through September 2, at the Orpheum Theatre in San Francisco.
The popular story of making it in New York with big drams and small assets, has been the eighth and final show of the 2006-2007 Best of Broadway season, directed by Carole Shorenstein Hays.
The show had its Broadway opening on July 31 2003 and was received with much critical and popular acclaim, winning 3 Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Original Score of a Musical and Best Book of a Musical and playing for 1,500 performances.
