The hit Broadway muppet-fest Avenue Q may have left Main St, but you can still catch it off Broadway. This is the first time a show has ever moved from the main stage to an off Broadway theater. We always knew Avenue Q was one of a kind, but this just makes it even more original. If you haven’t seen it then go, and if you have then see it again. This is one show you will definitely get your money’s worth.

Musical vs Movie
Many musicals live to become popular movies. Examples include Chicago, Cabaret, Les Miserables, and Phantom of the Opera (to name a few). Some would argue that these shows were meant for the stage while others like the movie giving more affordable access to a good story. I would argue that there are good things about both forms of presentation. There is nothing like watching a Broadway show unfold on stage. That being said, there are some things that are simply too hard to bring to life without the technical advancements of film. Sometimes the idea the people behind the show are trying to get across to it’s audience is easier to convey on film. The best would be to see the play in both forms. Go have the Broadway experience the cast and crew want to give you and keep that with you every time you watch the movie at home. That is the best way to get the full experience the show in question has to offer.
