> Urinetown The Musical transports audiences to a Gotham-like city where a 20-year drought 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 toilets is banned and an omnipotent corporation, the Urine Good Company, is charging citizens to use the bathroom!  This satirical comedy pokes fun at capitalism, corporate mismanagement, political corruption, social irresponsibility; and even parodies Broadway theater itself.  Beyond the absurd, beyond the ridiculous, lies Urinetown The Musical!
