URINETOWN, THE
MUSICAL presented by
Cascade Theatrical Company
One of the most
uproariously funny musicals in recent years, URINETOWN THE MUSICAL 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 drought, 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 THE MUSICAL is an irreverently humorous satire in
which no one is safe from scrutiny
