24th Street Theatre Presents URINETOWN, 3/4-3/27

A hilarious tale of greed, corruption, love and revolution in a time when water is worth its weight in gold! One of the most uproariously funny musicals in recent years, Urinetown 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 is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical could be, Urinetown catapults the "comedic romp" into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter.

Multiple elly award winning Producer and Director Bob Baxter teams up again with elly award winning choreographer Darryl Strohl, musical Director James Lohman and Vocal Director Deann Golz to stage this funny and innovative musical.

Urinetown performs Fridays & Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays 2 p.m., March 4-27, 2011.
