Winner of Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Score, and Best Book, Avenue Q is part flesh, part felt, and packed with heart. It tells the timeless story of a recent college grad named Princeton who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q. There he meets his colorful neighbors who help him discover his purpose in life.

Parental Advisory: Please note this show is Rated R. Avenue Q is great for teenagers because it’s about real life. It may not be appropriate for young children because Avenue Q addresses issues like sex and drinking. Parents should use their discretion based on the maturity level of their children. But we promise you this — if you do bring your teenagers to Avenue Q, they’ll think you’re really cool.

Topsy Turvy Tricks and Treats Fundraising Gala!

Get in the spirit of Halloween with a cast of 2nd Star’s veteran performers, as they celebrate the group’s 19th year of performances! Schedule changes at the Playhouse resulting in the loss of one of four productions per season, combined with significant rises in production costs, have necessitated fundraising efforts to support the continuation of this beloved staple of the arts in the Bowie community. Chief among these is the annual 2nd Star Gala at the Bowie Playhouse, and this year they have a real treat for you!

On Sunday October 6th, the group will present an evening of role reversal featuring favorite tunes from 2nd Star shows of the past as you’ve never seen them before! A light buffet of delicious finger foods will be served starting at 6 p.m., the show will commence at 7 p.m., and dessert will be provided during intermission. Tickets will be $40, and only $35 for attendees wearing costumes. The Gala will also conclude a silent auction fundraiser which will begin Friday, September 27th, opening night of the group’s production of Little Shop of Horrors.
