Description
The groundbreaking satirical musical spoof is set in a bleak futuristic city suffering from a severe shortage of water where private bathrooms have been outlawed. Citizens must pay crippling fees to use public latrines, which are run by a monopolistic corporation. Those who cannot pay get dragged off to “Urinetown”, a mysterious place from which they never return. Finally, Bobby Strong, the frustrated assistant manager of Amenity #9, leads the people in a courageous pee-for-free rebellion. Winner of 3 Tony Awards (2002), Urinetown is one of the most innovative and uproariously funny musicals in recent years.
