Beach Party Special (Avenue Q)/Transcript

(The special starts on a bright and sunny day on Avenue Q.)

Voice on Radio (Tim Lagasse): Good morning, Avenue Q. You're listening to this very special report. Today is the first day of summer and the weather for today will be all clear and sunny! That's right, listeners. A perfect day for going to the beach to have fun in the sun.

(Princeton and Kate Monster are seen listening to the radio station at their apartment.)

Kate Monster: Oh my god! Summer is here, Princeton!

Princeton: I know, Kate! It's so nice and sunny outside and it looks like a beautiful day for the beach!

(Princeton and Kate Monster heard screaming as they open the door and see their kids Almo, Ginger, Kieran, Lizzie and Memo running to the apartment as Mambo barks.)

Kieran: School is out!

Ginger: Hello, summer!

Kate Monster: Oh! Hey, kids! Listen, Daddy and I have a big surprise for you!

Almo: Really?

Memo: What?

Lizzie: What is it?

Princeton: Today, we're all having a beach party to celebrate the first day of summer!

Almo, Ginger, Kieran, Lizzie and Memo: (Cheering)

Kate Monster: Oh, I just love the beach! Come on, we better start changing ourselves.

(So Princeton, Kate Monster, Almo, Ginger, Kieran, Lizzie and Memo get ready for their trip to the beach. A few minutes later, they are now wearing bathing suits, sunglasses and sunscreen. Almo also brings Trumplet as a towel.)

Princeton: Okay, everyone! Let's get going and pick up all our friends so they can come with us!

Kieran: (as he and his family leave the apartment) Wow, Almo, I didn't know you can use Trumplet as a towel for the beach.

Memo: Good thinking, Almo!

Trumplet: I'm so excited! I always wanted to be a beach towel!

Almo: Almo can't wait to have some fun with all our friends at the beach! (Laughs and closes the door)

(Meanwhile, Stephanie, Shiloh, Bean, Olive Hoover, Matilda Honey, Araby Abaya, Cory Crow, Andreas Kokkino and Juliet Greenberg are playing basketball and Bean shoots the ball in the hoop.)
