Urinetown The Musical at Rocky Mountain Repertory Theatre

Set in a Gotham-like city gripped by a devastating 20-year drought, the story follows a society under a government-enforced ban on private toilets, forcing citizens to rely on public restrooms. These facilities are controlled by a single, malevolent corporation that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. When one man decides he’s had enough, he sparks a revolution that could lead them all to freedom.

No one is safe from scrutiny in this irreverent and wildly funny parody. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical can be, Urinetown catapulted the “comic romp” into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and relentless ability to unleash gales of unbridled laughter.
