Pee Ditty

You gotta love the premise of the musical Urinetown. A heartless corporation preys on a small town and, thanks to a 20-year water shortage, charges citizens just to flush their potties. Brutal, huh? (Thank goodness the idea of big companies gouging the little guy for daily conveniences is purely fictional.) But hope forms a little puddle when our hero Bobby Strong arrives, vowing to fight the Urine Good Company and its dastardly leader, Caldwell B. Cladwell. Will the citizens of Urinetown be left peeing in the wind? We can't say, but we can't wait to see what the folks at North Harris College do with this golden little show.
