One of the most uproariously funny musicals in recent years, "Urinetown" is a hilarious tale of greed, corruption, love, and revolution in a time when water is worth its weight in gold. 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.
Winner of several Tony awards, including Best Original Musical Score, "Urinetown" has been performed regionally at such places at Baylor University and Texas Tech University. "Urinetown" catapults the “comedic romp” into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter.
Cast: 11-20, ensemble with feature roles.
