In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. Citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides that he’s had enough and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!
Winner of three Tony Awards, Urinetown is a hilarious musical satire of the legal system, capitalism, bureaucracy, populism, bureaucracy, corporate mismanagement, municipal politics and musical theatre itself!
Hilariously funny and touchingly honest, Urinetown provides a fresh perspective on one of America’s greatest art forms.
Music/Lyrics: Greg Kotis/Mark Hollmann; book by Kotis; Directed by Jenni Caruso
