Tony Award winning URINETOWN, the Musical by Mark Holman and Greg Kotis. This irreverent musical comedy is produced in association with the University of Redlands Environmental Studies Department.

Imagine a show with the sensibility of Looney Toons, South Park, or The Simpsons and add a Brechtian narrator that tracks the love story of a boy and girl from opposite sides of the tracks. Filled with hilarious gags, exaggerated characters, URINETOWN is filled with songs that honor and spoof the history of musical theatre. Despite its sophisticated impertinence, its central themes challenge assumptions about the sustainability of water, social justice and love.
