FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Avenue Q to End Exclusive Run in Las Vegas
LAS VEGAS - February 14, 2006 - Wynn Las Vegas announced the end of Avenue Q's
exclusive run at Wynn Las Vegas. Steve Wynn explained, "As we finalized our
architectural plans for Encore at Wynn Las Vegas, including additional casino
area, rooms, meeting and convention space, food and beverage and retail
elements, we realized that if we could convert the Broadway Theatre currently
housing "Avenue Q" to the Grail Theatre for "Monty Python's Spamalot," we would
be able to most efficiently accommodate those new elements and meet the demands
of our hotel addition, which is in excess of 2,000 rooms. By releasing the
producers of Avenue Q from their exclusive non-touring agreement, we were able
to accomplish this architectural goal without having to invade our golf course
real estate. Giving up the delights of Avenue Q was a very difficult, but
necessary choice in view of all of the relevant factors. Happily, we will be
able to enjoy Avenue Q through its final performance on Sunday, May 28, 2006 at
its regular show times, giving all Las Vegas visitors and residents an
opportunity to experience everything wonderful that Avenue Q has to offer."
Kevin McCollum from The Producing Office, commented, "Audiences and critics love
Avenue Q. We look forward to sharing it with theatre audiences around the
world."
Avenue Q, the winner of three 2004 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, is now
in its third year on Broadway at the Golden Theatre (252 W. 45th Street), has
music and lyrics by Jeff Marx and Robert Lopez (Tony Award), book by Jeff Whitty
(Tony Award), and is based on an original concept by Jeff Marx and Jeff Whitty.
Avenue Q is directed by Jason Moore, and has puppets conceived and designed by
Rick Lyon.
