style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>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.</SPAN><SPAN
