WHILE YOU are patiently waiting around for the outrage of “Little Shop of Horrors” to bloom Oct. 2, you can gather at the Golden Theatre and catch the most absolutely adorable fluff of raunchiness ever to be seen on a stage. Yes, we said adorable and raunchy. I’m talking about the hilarious and touching magic of puppetry to be found in the extraordinary cast and production of “Avenue Q.” The musical is as if Elmo exposed his secret “down and dirty” thoughts in a tell-all book about “Sesame Street.” “Avenue Q” is a deliciously silly evening. So add your name to the list of celebs such as Ann Richards, Bette Midler, Ben Stiller, Nicole Kidman, Hilary Swank, Mike Nichols, Diane Sawyer, Barbara Walters and the latest “Sex & the City” hunk, Jason Lewis, who have seen “Avenue Q” and agree it’s quite an evening.
