Seattle Pacific Theatre Department Performs ‘Urinetown: The Musical’

Enjoy this hilarious critique of capitalism, corporate mismanagement, and musical theatre itself, at Seattle Pacific University, with ‘Urinetown: The Musical’.

Over the weekends of Jan 30th – Feb 1st and Feb 6th– 8th, the Seattle Pacific University Theatre Department presents the award-winning musical ‘Urinetown’, a hilarious critique of the legal system, capitalism, populism, bureaucracy, corporate mismanagement, municipal politics, and musical theatre itself.

Find out what happens in a fictionalized future, where a twenty-year drought has led to a ban on private toilets.  In this story, the police and a corrupt corporation oppress the people to the point of interfering with their freedom to pee.  Rebels rise up, as do star-crossed lovers, to challenge the rules and fight for freedom.  This tongue-in-cheek satire provides plenty of laughs, and music, to entertain, with a sharp-edged wit.

Purchase tickets to this Theatre Department production through the SPU website, for $15 general ($12 seniors and students.)  Performances take place on Thursday, Jan 30th – Saturday, Feb 1st and Thursday, Feb 6th – Saturday, Feb 8th, at 7:30p, and a 1p matinee on Saturdays.  Don’t be a bunny – check out ‘Urinetown: The Musical’ at the E.E. Bach Theatre in McKinley Hall at SPU.
