Directed by Liz Peterson
Music Direction by David Sytkowski
SOLD OUT!
April 12–14
Set in a Gotham-like city in the not-so-distant future, Urinetown is a scathing satire with a tragic love story at its heart. In it, we see how a community is torn apart by an oppressive for-profit system, how figures of liberation rise up, and the impossible choices they are left with. Featuring music inspired by so many other musicals, this is a show that both celebrates and satirizes the tradition of musical theater.
