Urinetown!
The Musical!
by Greg Kotis and Mark Hollmann
Directed by Barbara Nichols
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
draught, 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
people, a hero decides 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. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical could
be, 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.
Our production of URINETOWN, which ran September 22 through October 8, 2006, was nominated "Best Show" and "Best Community Theatre Production" for 2006! Thank you, KC Stage Online!
