Musical #4: Avenue Q

Never in my life, I thought that I'll be watching a "sesame street" style puppetry. To me, it was kinda lame and boring, but Avenue Q completely shattered such thought. The awesomeness of the puppetry musical was something really unexpected!

I was instantly cheered up once the music starts. Humorous and engaging were the only description that I could think of! Seriously! The lyrics was absolutely funny and vulgar (for instance, Internet is for Porn)! And also, the puppeteers were so good at communicating the feelings and personality of the puppet through their puppets and facial expression. The musical also delivered some very good take home messages in an easy to digest way throughout the night. And perhaps, this is one of the most engaging musicals I've ever seen because the content and ideas revolve around our daily lives. I find it easy to associate to it. That is how musical should be. Engaging.

In short, its absolutely amazing! It is definitely a feel good musical and I love every single minute of it. Thumbs up for Avenue Q!
