            Cleveland, OH-The Beck Center for the Arts proudly presents
Urinetown the Musical, opening on the Mackey Main Stage September 16th
and running through October 9th.

            A wild and happy mix of biting satire and loving parody,
Urinetown the Musical transports audiences to a Gotham-like city where
ecological disaster has made the simplest human necessity, water, more
precious than gold.  Attempting to regulate its consumption, the
government has imposed a bizarre law-the use of private restrooms is
banned and an omnipotent corporation, the Urine Good Company, is
charging citizens money to use the toilet! =20

            In 2002, Urinetown the Musical was a three-time Tony Award
winner for Best Score, Best Book of a Musical and Best Direction. Beck's
own version of the Mark Hollmann and Greg Kotis play is directed by Beck
Center Artistic Director Scott Spence and features dazzling and
hilarious tunes like, "It's A Privilege To Pee."  The Beck Center is
excited to feature Gregory Violand as Caldwell B. Cladwell and Matthew
Wright as Officer Lockstock, among others.

            "I am thrilled to be producing this at Beck Center," says
Spence.  "From the moment I saw the Broadway production I knew that
Beck's Main Stage would be the perfect venue for this hilarious new
musical.  It is a glimpse into the very bright future of American
musical theater!"

Beyond the sublime, beyond the ridiculous, lies Urinetown the Musical.
The Beck Center's production of this untamed, comic gem is sponsored by
WCPN 90.3 ideastream, WDOK 102.1 FM, Moen, and LakewoodBuzz.com.  Show
times are Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 p.m. and Sundays at 3:00 p.m.
with special Thursday evening performances at 8:00 p.m. on September 29
and October 6.

For tickets, call the Beck Center box office at (216) 521-2540 or log
onto www.beckcenter.org <http://www.beckcenter.org/> .   Tickets are $28
for adults, $25 for seniors (65 and older), and $17 for students (22 and
under with ID) which includes a $2 administrative fee per ticket applied
at the time of ticket reservation.  Group discounts are available for
parties of 12 or more.  The Beck Center for the Arts is located just ten
