Avenue Q, the Tony Award-winning smash hit, comes to the Country Playhouse. With catchy songs, infectious wit and partial puppet nudity, Avenue Q is an adult musical that tells the coming-of-age tale of Princeton, a recent college grad who discovers that the real world isn't quite like what he grew up seeing on TV. Full of humor and hummable tunes, it's a hilarious look at life in New York, featuring a fantastic cast of people and puppets -- from the girl next door to an internet sexpert, Gary Coleman, a closeted Republican and more. Country Playhouse and Standing Room Only Productions present this hit which ran for more than six years on Broadway, winning the Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Original Score and Best Book.

Inspired by the true story of real-life con artist David Hampton in the 1980s, Six Degrees of Separation follows a young black man who insinuates himself into the lives of a wealthy white New York couple by claiming that he is the son of actor Sidney Poitier. In this award-winning drama, playwright John Guare examines the threads of chance that link one person to another and the consequences that result.

This was so funny, i literally laughed out loud throught the night. I wasn't entirely sure what to expect when I heard "puppets" but it was a really fun evening. Definitley not for children, but perfect for a date night.

Really great show. Good music, good acting, very funny play. Only problem was a sound issue, one of the actor's microphones was a little messed up and it was quite distracting from the show. but other than that, great performance!

About the Ticket Supplier: Country Playhouse

In early 1956 the Country Playhouse was founded by a group of hardworking individuals, all with one common interest; a love for theatre. Their first play was Personal Appearance by Lawrence Riley and was performed at Memorial Drive Elementary School. Their first production made a profit of $112.

In 1958, the Playhouse relocated to the old Veteran's Hall on Katy Road. The place was an old abandoned church in a state of disrepair, but by 1960 the Playhouse had raked in profits of $6000 - enough to build their own building on the property. The barn-like structure of The Country Playhouse continued to delight audiences with performances until they were forced to move when their property was purchased by Joe Johnson, and is now part of Memorial City Mall.

In 1981, The Country Playhouse found its latest and greatest home across the street from Town & Country Mall and remains there today. The Cerwinske Stage (named after charter members Herb & Alceste Cerwinske) holds a capacity crowd of 226 and the Black Box theatre provides a venue for entertainment ranging from cutting edge, commercial plays to live readings of original works, many of which go on to full production staging. The Playhouse holds adult and children's acting classes under the professional eye of Barbara Lasater.
