Princeton, a new college graduate, can’t afford to live anywhere but Avenue Q, a city neighborhood where reality includes a mix of human and puppet neighbors, like Sesame Street. Unlike Sesame Street, however, life for the residents of Avenue Q is full of grown-up obsessions and problems, uncertain outcomes, and extreme irony; the search for purpose is a difficult one. The show is definitely rated R for language, full puppet nudity, and the inclusion of adult themes such as racism, pornography, homosexuality, and schadenfreude, not to mention Gary Coleman!
