Music and Lyrics by Mark Hollmann Book and Lyrics by Greg Kotis Directed and Choreographed by Katie Banville & Melissa Glasgow Music Direction by Michelle Grey "Urinetown, The Musical" is a hilarious musical satire of the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, populism, environmental collapse, privatization of natural resources, bureaucracy, municipal politics, and musical theatre itself! In a city not unlike our own, 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 that he's had enough and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Tickets are available at www.StagehouseTheatre.com or by calling 619-644-7234.
