Avenue Q is moving to the Wyndham’s Theatre in March 2010

The puppet show with a difference goes to it’s third theatre in it’s fifth year in London. Having only moved in to the Gielgud Theatre last June it seems that Avenue Q is on a bit of a tour of the West End.

But that’s not all. There is a bit of a game of “musical theatre” going on with Avenue Q moving to the Wyndham’s on March 19th, Stephen Daldry’s production of An Inspector Calls closes a week early on March 13th and Hair moves in to Avenue Q’s current home of the Gielgud Theatre from April 11th.

To call it a puppet show does Avenue Q disservice. Sesame Street for grown-ups isn’t right either. There’s no handy way to describe Avenue Q except as the furriest, and one of the funniest, shows you’re likely ever to see–if you can catch up with it that is.

There are also some cast changes to mention with Paul Spicer, who has previously starred in Fame and Taboo replacing the popular Daniel Boys as Princeton/Rod and Delroy Atkinson is scheduled to return as Gary.

The Shawshank Redemption and dinner at Spaghetti House Leicester Sq

We have a new ticket and dinner package available which combines a two course meal from the pre theatre menu at Spaghetti House Leicester Square with a balcony ticket for Shawshank Redemption at the Wyndhams Theatre.

The Restaurant

A passion for good food and authentic Italian flavours were the main ingredients which inspired the Lavarini family to open the first Spaghetti House restaurant in 1955 in Goodge Street.

Since those early days Spaghetti House has now grown into a 10 strong group of restaurants, all located at iconic locations in the West End of London, where generations of customers continue to enjoy the same convivial hospitality and friendly service combined with the delicious simplicity and affordable quality of Italian cuisine.

The Show

Based on the short novel Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption by Stephen King, this iconic story inspired the ever popular film.
Evening performance: Tuesday to Thursday and Saturday 7.30pm, Friday 8.30pm
