Can you tell me how to get, how to get to....

Avenue Q!

As my wifey told me, you are going to be cultured! I told her fine! We can go to Oktoberfest. But apparently, her type of culture is different than my type of culture. Which means, I have no culture...remember, we covered this already she's right, I'm wrong, men call it "Love".

Anywho, I was surprised at how well done this was. Acting is a difficult thing to do well; but, acting while controlling a puppet... Its a total ripoff of sesame street, only themed for adults. This is the 1 o'clock A.M. Cineamax version of Sesame Street. We are talking about full frontal nudity...of the puppets of coarse.

The first act was semi-monotonous. It seemed as they were trying to push the envelope on every front possible. It didn't seem as though there were any solid plot lines, just a ton of story arcs. Since we are trying to be a family friendly blog I won't post any of the song titles or themes. Just think Bert and Ernie living in a brothel.

The second act was soooo much better. They focused on a couple of arcs and ran with it. The story, in a nutshell, is about a man(puppet), fresh out of college, trying to find a purpose, and learning that to love is to give, and to give is purpose.

All in all, I give it 7612837 marionettes out of 9083432 marionettes.


The only thing I think could have made it better would have been a cameo from Big Bird...The Pimp.
