Stage and Screen Productions to present ‘Urinetown, The Musical’ April 3-7

March 21, 2024 – Stage and Screen Productions at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls will present “Urinetown, the Musical” April 3-7.

The production, with music by Mark Hollmann, lyrics by Hollmann and Greg Kotis, and book by Kotis, is April 3-6 at 7:30 p.m. and at 2 p.m. on April 7 in the Blanche Davis Theatre in the Kleinpell Fine Arts building, 420 E. Cascade Ave., River Falls.

“Urinetown, the Musical” is a humorous satire about a town beleaguered by drought, greed, and corruption. When water becomes so scarce that citizens are forced to pay outrageous fees to use the bathrooms, revolution erupts. The show is funny, timely, and filled with engaging characters and music.

The production is directed by Stage and Screen Arts Lecturer Kathy Welch, with musical direction by Cera Babb and Casey Palbicki of the university’s Music Department.
