Urinetown<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

by Mark Hollman and Greg Kotis
Directed by Harry Waters Jr.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

November 4-6, 10-12, 2016
Mainstage Theater<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Urinetown: The Musical<\/em> is a satirical musical comedy that has won three Tony Awards, three Outer Critics Circle Awards, two Lucille Lortel Awards, and two Obie Awards. A 20-year drought leads to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens of Urinetown must use public amenities that are regulated by a company that profits by charging admission for one of the human body’s most basic needs. One man plans a revolution in this satire of the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, corporate mismanagement, and musical theatre itself, providing a fresh perspective on one of the theatre’s greatest art forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
