Interesting. In a deal that was wrapped up just days before the Tonys, Avenue Q plans to forgo a national tour in favor of a resident production in Las Vegas. It’s scheduled to open around Labor Day 2005 at the Wynn Las Vegas resort (under construction) in a theater built especially for the show. I suppose it makes business sense (and also, it seems most touring productions get booked into big theaters that seat at least a couple of thousand people, which wouldn’t be right for Avenue Q‘s intimate scale), but still, I feel like potential theater-goers will be missing out. Oh well, another reason to go to Vegas!
