๐ŸŽญ Our Avenue Q audition slots are almost full but weโ€™re still looking in particular to hear from people ready to bring the roles of Christmas Eve and Gary Coleman to life.

As part of our commitment to authentic storytelling, our director would particularly love to hear from performers whose lived experiences and backgrounds closely reflect the iconic characters of Christmas Eve and Gary Coleman.

If youโ€™ve ever fancied being part of one of the funniest, quirkiest and most heartfelt musicals around, weโ€™d love to see you. These are brilliant comedic roles with huge personality and unforgettable moments.
