“Urinetown” begins with a friendly welcome from our narrator, Officer Lockstock. Officer Lockstock (David Blumenstock) and the adorable moppet Little Sally (Rachel Graham) fill us in on the back story. As the result of a terrible water shortage, private toilets have become unthinkable and all restroom activities are handled through a private corporation! This hilarious comedy features a satirical look at the corporate world, incorporating sight gags and parodies of musical theatre conventions, in general, and Les Miserables, in particular, and makes jokes that poke fun at the show itself. Follow us to a funny, foreboding future filled with ...symbolism - where public bathrooms are controlled by private business, and where it has now become a privilege to pee!

The cast includes Brad Wagner (Bobby Strong), Rebecca Donnella (Hope Cladwell), Richard Beall (Caldwell B.
