Photo Flash: Andra McArdle, Ken Clark Lead Connecticut Repertory Theatre's URINETOWN!
Connecticut Repertory Theatre (CRT) will present the smash-hit Broadway Musical
Urinetown, featuring Broadway star Andrea McArdle, April 14 - 17 & 27 - 30, 2011 in the
Harriet S. Jorgensen Theatre on the Storrs campus. For tickets and information, call 860-486-
4226 or visit www.crt.uconn.edu.
Connecticut Repertory Theatre will close its main stage season with the surprise Broadway hit
Urinetown, the musical, book and lyrics by Greg Kotis, music and lyrics by Mark Hollman.
Urinetown sends up corporate greed, ecological disaster and musical theatre itself, through
hummable music, old fashioned dance numbers, and sharp humor. This entertaining and
crowd-pleasing show started at the 1999 New York International Fringe Festival, a launching
pad for new non-traditional works. Its success at the Fringe led took it to off-Broadway and a
transfer to Broadway where it delighted audiences and won several Tony Awards, including Best
Book of a Musical and Best Original Musical Score. Tony Nominee Andrea McArdle will star
as Penelope Pennywise alongside Broadway veteran Bob Walton and newcomer Ken
Clark.
