Urinetown - the Musical, opened Tuesday in its Los Angeles Premiere at the Wilshire Theatre. As one of the characters, Little Sally, in the musical reminds us, it is an 'awful title' with a 'plot so absurd…' But what she doesn't mention, and instead lets the entire cast show you, is that Urinetown - The Musical is one of the best shows to emerge from Broadway in the last decade.
