Book and lyrics by Greg Kotis

Directed by Andrew Gaupp

Urinetown is an absurdist, melodramatic musical about a city in the midst of a drought so devastating that a malevolent corporation has been able to take control of all the toilet facilities.  Greed, corruption, and betrayal run rampant as the public desperately seeks relief.

The show revolves around a city where private bathrooms are outlawed and everyone must pay outrageous fees to use the public facilities.  Those who don't have the money are "relocated" to Urinetown, a mysterious place from which no one returns.  Finally, one facility manager begins a rebellion.  Unfortunately, the manager is in love with the daughter of the greedy corporation's president and that leads to trouble.

The show debuted at the New York International Fringe Festival, Off-Broadway production later, and then opened on Broadway at the Henry Miller Theatre on September 20, 2001.  It closed after 965 performances and 25 previews on January 18, 2004.
