Eau Claire Children’s Theatre Desperately Seeking 'Avenue Q' Actress

Lauren Fisher |

The Eau Claire Children’s Theatre will cancel their production of Avenue Q if they are unable to find an Asian adult female singer and actor to play the role of Christmas Eve by Wednesday (March 21). Christmas Eve is an affianced therapist with two master’s degrees from Japan.  She doesn’t have many clients, which doesn’t help her natural cynicism.

Rehearsals, tentatively held during evenings, are scheduled to begin March 19 at 7pm.  The production is currently set to run for six days: May 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, and 19.

Avenue Q is about Princeton, a recent college graduate with a degree in english, who moves out on his own into a new apartment with host of neighbors who, despite what they may have learned on Sesame Street as children, aren’t any more special than anyone else, and feel their options in life are limited. The play employs the use of puppets in a style similar to Sesame Street.
