About This Activity
Winner of three Tony Awards, Urinetown is a hilarious musical satire of social irresponsibility, environmental collapse, bureaucracy, and musical theatre itself! 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. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging 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! Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Hilariously funny and touchingly honest, Urinetown provides a fresh perspective on one of America's greatest art forms.
