Don't let the title put you off! Urinetown The Musical is a must-see laugh a minute treat.
In a Gotham- like town somewhere, fantastical, yet strangely familiar - a twenty-year drought causes private toilets to be outlawed and people may only relieve themselves in public facilities - spend a penny to spend a penny. But the poor revolt, led by lantern-jawed idealist, Bobby Strong whose conviction is that no one ought to have to pee at someone else's convenience!
Subversive and sassy, Urinetown brilliantly satirises the kind of ecological crises which are destined to dominate the 21st century. At the same time, it pokes cheerful fun at all the clich�s of Broadway musicals, whilst cashing in on their best bits. You've got to go!
'Urinetown is hilarious, simply the most galvanizing theatre experience in town.' New York Times
