What if using the bathroom wasn't a right, but a privilege? Presented by Osceola Arts, Urinetown is a hilarious and wickedly smart musical satire that turns corporate greed, government corruption and environmental crisis into one of Broadway's most celebrated comedies. Directed by Joy Belding-Gagne, this bold production brings big laughs and even bigger ideas to one of Orlando's premier stages—The Alexis & Jim Pugh Theater at The Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts.
In a fictional city gripped by a severe water shortage, private toilets have been banned and citizens must pay to use public amenities—or face banishment to the dreaded "Urinetown." When young rebel Bobby Strong dares to fight back against the oppressive Urine Good Company, a revolution is flushed into motion. Part political comedy, part love story, and part send-up of musicals themselves, Urinetown is as thought-provoking as it is entertaining.
Winner of three Tony Awards including Best Book and Best Original Score, the show delivers memorable characters, a razor-sharp script and show-stopping musical numbers.
