BYAHILO at the Broadway hit musical Avenue Q
Posted on June 17, 2008
It was another kind of journey I ventured to last weekend when I went to the Carlos P. Romulo Auditorium in RCBC Tower Makati City Philippines to watch the farewell run of the Broadway hit musical “Avenue Q.â€
The multi-awarded Broadway musical play Avenue Q was actually never part of my weekend itinerary. I was supposed to stay longer at the 2008 Manila Toycon in SM Megamall and go to Cubao for an event with Manila’s premier tour guide Carlos Celdran. But just before I left home, Nina buzzed my Yahoo! Messanger and asked me if I want to join her watching the show. I agreed.
The main stars of the show Kate Monster and Princeton are actually puppets. Kate Monster is being handled by international theatre star Carla Guevarra and Princeton is handled by Felix Rivera. Other stars include Aiza Seguerra, Joel Trinidad, Frenchie Dy, Rycharde Everley, and Tenee Chan.

I loved the show so much. It made me laugh, almost shed a tear and made me reflect on what is really my purpose in life. I was held breathless when Carla Guevarra sang the song “There’s a fine, fine line.†It was rendered so beautifully. She gave so much life to the character of Kate Monster. I also love how Carla handled Lucy T. Slut. Yeah, it was slutty, but done in a very artistic way. Love it!

I also like the character of Princeton. Felix Rivera is just so perfect for the role. The voice of Felix just fits right for the character. Oh, and the love scene? I was so hilarious. I almost screamed “Schadenfreude!â€
The very last show of Avenue Q will be this coming June 21, 2008 at 8PM. Tickets are available at Ticketworld
Catch this Broadway hit before they finally pack their bags and say Hello to Singapore. Yup, Kate Monster, Princeton, Christmas Eve and the Gang will all be moving the Avenue Q to Singapore for a series of shows at the Lion City.
