I created all of the puppets for AVENUE Q, and was in the original Broadway cast, originating the roles of Nicky, Trekkie Monster, one of the Bad Idea Bears, and other characters. I also starred in The Las Vegas production in 2005, before returning to Broadway, where I finished my tour of duty in October of 2006.

AVENUE Q is a fresh musical comedy about growing up and embracing life, that features a multicultural cast of human and puppet characters. It's about getting jobs, paying rent, bad relationships, and the unfairness of existence, told through the conventions of a cozy, familiar kids' TV show turned on its head. AVENUE Q is a sharp, witty live musical strictly for adults, and one of the few completely original musicals of the last few years. It's not a revival, based on a movie, an adaptation of a book, or a collection of old pop songs strung together - it is entirely original.

Following a highly successful off-Broadway run at the Vineyard Theatre, AVENUE Q opened on Broadway on July 31, 2003 at the John Golden Theatre, and ran for 2,534 performances before closing on September 13, 2009. AVENUE Q re-opened off-Broadway at New World Stages in October of 2009, and closed there May 26, 2019.
