Description

The winner of three Tony Awards, Urinetown is a hilarious and touchingly honest musical satire of capitalism, social irresponsibility, environmental collapse, and musical theatre itself! The story centers around a Gotham-like city suffering a terrible water shortage caused by a 20-year drought that has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. 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 oppressed people, a charismatic hero plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!
