PlayBlog Gary Coleman, Is That You? When the Tony-winning Avenue Q makes the Broadway to Off-Broadway leap — performances begin at New World Stages in October — the role of Gary Coleman, which was played by a woman throughout the entire Broadway run (and during the original Off-Broadway run at the Vineyard), will likely be played by a man.


Although a production spokesperson could not confirm the change in the character's gender, a casting notice for the role states, "African-American man, mid 20s-40s." Male or female, we just hope the actor enjoys reveling in schadenfreude.
