URINETOWN || APRIL 26 - MAY 19, 2024
Music by Mark Hollmann | Lyrics by Mark Hollman & Greg Kotis | Book by Greg Kotis
In this triumphant and uproarious musical send-up, a terrible water shortage has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets in a Gotham-like city. The 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. A hilariously funny and touchingly honest satire on the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, corporate mismanagement, and musical theatre itself, Urinetown provides a fresh and timely addition to one of America’s greatest art forms.
