We took some time out to have a chat with a couple more stars from Avenue Q, flatmates Rod and Nicky. Bless them, they do like to bicker. But hey, you know there's love underneath...
Q. So guys, how long have you been best buddies for now? How did you meet?
Nicky: We’ve been buddies for six years now, and roomies for four.
`
Rod: Nicky delivered sandwiches to my office, but Nicky being Nicky, they were the wrong kind so we talked for hours about pastrami… buddies ever since.
Q. Rod, do you have your eye on anyone in particular at the moment – who doesn’t live in Canada?
Rod: Well, I find Tony Blair a very attractive man, and I would just love to know where he gets those snappy suits from.
Q. Rod, if Nicky did move out, who else on the street do you think you could live with and why?
Rod: I guess I would like to live with Kate, cos she is such a great fluffy gal pal and we do enjoy our sudoku evenings.
Q. Who inspires you both the most?
Rod: David Hassellhoff inspires me more than anyone, I mean, he wears trunks like no other man! I met him at our press night and he was just delightful, and taught me how to run in slow motion.
Nicky: Well, I love my comics so it would have to be Batman.
Q. Where did you go on holiday last?
Rod: We went to Disneyland – it was fabulous. They say it’s a great place for kids and Nicky had a fantastic time.
Nicky: Man, I loved that Dumbo ride.
Q. What do you both love the most about New York?
Rod: I love skipping around Times Square and taking in all the shows.
Nicky: Where else in the world would you find a hot dog stand at every corner?
Rod: And where else would you find a guy who stops at every one?
Nicky: Mmm hotdogs!
Q. Rod, we heard you like knitting, what’s the last thing you knitted?
Rod: I met this charming lady from Warwick, Dora, who is teaching me to knit those teapot cosy things that you British people use all the time– I think they’re so cute!
Q. Who do you both find most attractive, Lucy or Kate Monster?
Rod: Lucy is faaaabulous and has such amazing style but –
Nicky: Yeah, Kate is a beautiful person inside and out.
Q. Where do you think you’ll move to if you become rich or famous?
Nicky: I would love a beach house on Venice Beach, lazing under the su nand watching the girls go by. And man do they have great hotdogs!
Rod: Definitely San Francisco, for the amazing tram system.
