“Avenue Q and much much more”
Avenue Q really put the New Group on the map, and I couldn't be happier about it. They consistently produce some of the most adventurous theater in New York. Sure, they often cast celebrities, but they're real New Yorkers like Ethan Hawke, Chloe Sevigny, and Martha Plimpton.
