Puppet state after 15 yrs. of ’Ave. Q’

Original stars of the randy puppet musical “Avenue Q” return to the show running Off-Broadway this month to celebrate the show’s 15th Broadway anniversary, which falls on July 31.

When John Tartaglia and Stephanie D’Abruzzo and other alums pop back for a performance or two, it’ll basically be business as usual. Same puppet sex. Same clever songs. Same reminder that “everyone’s a little bit racist.” Same Tony-winning show created by Robert Lopez, Jeff Marx and Jeff Whitty.

But there’s one chief change.

They’ll be dissing Donald Trump in the final number, not George W. Bush as they did when the show began previews at the Golden Theatre on July 10, 2003, and opened three weeks later.

The song observes that life comes with hurdles and hardships, noting, “You’ll be faced with problems of all shapes and sizes.”

“When Jeff and I wrote that lyric, it was in 2000, shortly after George Bush had just ‘beaten’ Al Gore by Supreme Court decision, and we were feeling depressed about it,” Lopez told the Daily News.
