2 of the most popular musicals in the theatre in recent years are Wicked and Avenue Q.

Wicked is a thought provoking look at the events leading upto the Wizard of OZ, and follows the adventures of Elphaba, who will go on to become the Wicked Witch of the West, and Glinda, who becomes the Good Witch of the North. Wicked has gone onto to break box office records around the world.

Avenue Q has been described as an adult Sesame Street, and when it closed on Broadway it became the one of the longest running shows of all time. The show features mainly commedy songs, and the show is aimed at adults, whith strong language and adults themes.

As of June 21, 2009, the production had grossed $117,009,852 and had returned profits of $23,500,000 to its investors.
