Person in a tunnel

A twenty-year drought and chronic water shortage. Public toilets privatised in a government attempt to control water consumption. Urinetown: a tale of greed, corruption and revolution.

Winner of three Tony Awards, Urinetown, The Musical explores the effects on a community in a parallel universe when water is worth its weight in gold.  Expect laugh-out-loud comedy, beautiful songs and a truly original tale. Award-winning Guildhall School alumnus Ashley Zhangazha directs this ‘sharp, smart, funny’ musical (Telegraph).  

This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Music Theatre International (Europe).
