Urinetown, The Musical at CSUF

Winner of three Tony Awards, three Outer Critics Circle Awards, two Lucille Lortel Awards and two Obie Awards, Urinetown is an irreverent satire that skewers politics, social irresponsibility, and even musicals themselves. After a devastating 20-year drought, the government of a Gotham-like city has banned private toilets, forcing citizens to pay admission to a single, sinister company for one of life’s most basic needs. But a brave hero emerges and decides enough is enough and inspires the town to revolt along with him. Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown has been hailed for its modern wit, outrageous perspective, and cheeky send ups of the musical genre.
