The Kenton Theatre, Henley-on-Thames

The award-winning Reading Operatic Society returns to The Kenton Theatre this September with a laugh-out-loud musical filled with gut-busting humour and a delightfully catchy score, not to mention puppets!

AVENUE Q is a truly unique show that has quickly become a favourite with audiences everywhere. It tells the timeless story of a recent college graduate named Princeton, who moves into a shabby New York apartment on Avenue Q. He soon discovers that, although the residents seem nice, it’s not your ordinary neighbourhood. Together, Princeton and his new-found friends struggle to find jobs, dates and their ever–elusive purpose in life.

With the creative team of Thomas Atkinson-Joy as Director, Anton Gwilt as Musical Director and Delun Jones as Choreographer, AVENUE Q addresses humorous adult issues and is a place where puppets are friends, monsters are good, and life lessons are learned.
