In a Gotham-like city, a catastrophic 20-year drought has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets to conserve water. Citizens must use pay-per-use amenities owned and operated by Urine Good Co., a malevolent corporation run by the corrupt Caldwell B. Cladwell. Amid the people, a hero plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom.
That is the plot for “Urinetown,” a three-time Tony award-winning, uproariously funny musical by Mark Hollmann and Greg Kotis. The University of Alabama at Birmingham Department of Theatre will present the musical April 9-13, with shows at 7:30 p.m. nightly April 9-12 and a matinee at 2 p.m. Sunday, April 13, in the Sirote Theatre at UAB’s Alys Stephens Performing Arts Center, 1200 10th Ave. South. General admission tickets are $12 and $15, student tickets $6, and UAB employee and senior citizen tickets $10. Call 205-975-2787 for tickets. Visit Theatre UAB at www.uab.edu/theatre.
