Urinetown is a comedy musical about corruption, greed, love, and revolution. Following a 20 year drought, the characters of the play are forced by the Urine Good Company (UGC) to “pay-to-pee.” Those who cannot afford to pay the price for one of life’s basic needs are sent to the penal colony of Urinetown. When a fee hike is enacted, a courageous rebel leads a revolt.

Ticket prices are $14 Student and Senior and $16 for adults.
