Summer Rehearsal & Performance

2026 Production

Urinetown

July 2–5 @ Libby S. Gottwald Playhouse

A sidesplitting sendup of greed, love, revolution (and musicals!), set in a time when water is worth its weight in gold. Winner of three Tony Awards, three Outer Critics Circle Awards, two Lucille Lortel Awards, and two Obie Awards, Urinetown is a hilarious musical satire of the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, populism, environmental collapse, privatization of natural resources, bureaucracy, municipal politics, and musical theatre itself. Hilariously funny and touchingly honest, Urinetown provides a fresh perspective on one of America’s greatest art forms.

Music and Lyrics by Mark Hollmann
Book and Lyrics by Greg Kotis
Direction by Rebecca Wahls
Musical Direction by Jake Ramirez
