AVENUE Q is Broadway's smash-hit 2004 Tony Award® winner for BEST MUSICAL, BEST SCORE and BEST BOOK. A hilarious show full of heart and hummable tunes, AVENUE Q is about trying to make it in NYC with big dreams and a tiny bank account.

Called "one of the funniest shows you're ever likely to see" by Entertainment Weekly, AVENUE Q features a cast of people and puppets who tell the story in a smart, risque and downright entertaining way.

The New Yorker calls it "SUBVERSIVE and UPROARIOUS!" Recommended for ages 13 and up.

Paul Myrehaug is a unique blend of small town party and hip urban style, a combination that has launched him into the national spotlight.  His laid back brand of comedy is a hit from the Yukon to the Dominican Republic.

In addition to being a fixture of the club and college circuit, Paul has also been featured on XM Radio-Laugh Attack channel, the 2007Just for Laughs Festival, Vancouver Comedy Festival, Whistler Comedy Festival, the Yukon Rendezvous Festival and the 2007 Halifax Comedy Festival on CBC.   He  has cemented his status as one of Canada’s top young comics. Most recently, Paul was the winner of Yuk Yuk’s 2007 Great Canadian Laugh Off $25,000 Grand Prize!!

On stage Paul is disarmingly candid and thoroughly likable.  He delights in taking chances rather than following a scripted routine.  The result is a memorable performance that belies his youth and leaves audiences screaming for more.  Plus, his last name is really fun to say.  With all these attributes, Paul Myrehaug is headed for a very bright future.  Check him out soon at a club near you.

In recent years, he has continued to write and perform, doing both on Toronto 1’s “The Toronto Show” (for which he won a 2004 Canadian Comedy Award), acted as head writer for the CBC Tsunami Fundraiser “Canada For Asia”, produced the series “Hockeyville", wrote for “Test The Nation”, and most recently penned the 2007 NHL Awards.
