Urinetown is a hilarious and timely musical tale of greed, corruption, love, and revolution in a dystopian future when there is a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought. This has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets forcing the citizens to 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.
