Avenue Q returns to the West End

I first encountered Avenue Q on Broadway in 2008 and later via the V&A Museum’s National Video Archive of Performance whilst working on an exhibit there. So joining the team to bring it back to the West End alongside original and new creative members was a true privilege.

I adore every character in this clever, deceptively complex show. The cast is exceptional and as directed by Jason Moore they manage to find the perfect balance of heart and humor. It is a joy to hear the audience’s laughter and gasps of support for the characters each night.

The music and writing feel fresh while honoring the original classic and the band is so brilliant I could listen to their sound check alone all evening.

Collaborating with Anna Louizos on her inventive set has been wonderful, especially finding new ways to integrate original animation and hidden video surfaces.

My team at PixelLux, working alongside designers Tim Lutkin and Paul Groothuis, has worked to re-format and expand the interstitial material and add more humour and richness to the show with new material.


With the original puppet designs who now sport Jean Chan’s ingenious new costume designs, it has been an honor to be part of the Avenue Q ‘Class of 2026.
