Jacqueline Tate will take on the role of one of Princeton’s neighbours, Christmas Eve. Tate is currently appearing in The Phantom of the Opera at Her Majesty’s Theatre.

Atkinson can currently be seen Jihad The Musical at the Jermyn Street theatre, his theatre credits also include he Enchanted Pig at the Young Vic, Rent at the Prince of Wales theatre and Come Dancing, The Harder They Come and Pinocchio at the Theatre Royal Stratford East.

The new cast members will join exiting cast members Cassidy Janson, Christopher Fry, Rachel Jerram, Tom Parsons.

Avenue Q combines puppets and humans in a histerically funny story which follows Princeton, a recent garduate with a BA in English as he tries to find his purpose in life. Along the way the show explores internet porn, racism and the perils of dating.

The show originally opened at the Noel Coward Theatre in 2006, transferring to the Gielgud in 2009, it will now find a new home at the Wyndham’s Theatre from the 19th March 2010 where it is currently booking until September.
