Avenue Q is a Tony Award-winning musical conceived by composers Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx with lyrics by Jeff Whitty. It premiered on Broadway in March 2003, achieving immediate success both in the United States and worldwide. The story follows a group of puppet characters living on Avenue Q as they navigate love, careers, and self-discovery in an ironic and satirical context. Among its most famous songs are "The Internet Is for Porn", "If You Can't Love Me Now", and "Fantasticks".
