‘What kind of musical is this?’<br />

The Tony Award-winning, satirical comedy<br />

‘Urinetown’ closes out CSUSB’s 2017-2018 Season<br />

“GOSH, DADDY, I NEVER REALIZED LARGE,<br />

MONOPOLIZING CORPORATIONS COULD BE SUCH<br />

A FORCE FOR GOOD IN THE WORLD!” – HOPE<br />

On June 1, The Ellen Weisser Endowed Theatre Showcase flushes<br />

the 2017-2018 Season down with the Tony Award-winning<br />

musical, Urinetown, music and lyrics by Mark Hollmann, book<br />

and lyrics by Greg Kotis, and directed by Cal State San Bernardino<br />

professor Kathryn Ervin.<br />

There is a terrible water shortage in the world and private toilets<br />

have been banned. The private corporation Urine Good Company, or<br />

UGC, controls water consumption by charging the masses for use of<br />

public facilities, and those who cause trouble are sent to Urinetown<br />

never to be seen again. But when the price to pee perpetually increases,<br />

the people rebel!<br />

With a total of eight performances, Urinetown plays June 1, 2, 7, 8 and<br />

9 at 8pm, with matinee performances June 3, 9, and 10 at 2pm.<br />
