“Urinetown is hilarious… simply the most gripping and galvanizing theater experience in town.” -The New York Times
 
Welcome to Urinetown! A dark and dreary not-so-distant future, where citizens have to pay to pee. Private toilets have been banned and a malevolent corporation has capitalized on one of humanity’s most basic needs in order to monopolize and take control of the city. Urinetown is a three-time Tony Award-winning musical satire that prods at corporate mismanagement, capitalism, bureaucracy, politics, and even musicals themselves. Remember to use the facilities before joining us for this hilariously funny and touchingly honest romp! Can a hero emerge and rally a revolution to take back their freedom?
 
Urinetown was produced on Broadway in September, 2001 by the Araca Group and Dodger Theatricals in association with TheaterDreams, Inc., and Lauren Mitchell.

The college has invested in a 4-camera set up to broadcast our performances live. You will have access and angles like you’ve never experienced in theatre before, plus the best seat in the house for every show – your own!
 
In addition to our online ticket platform, tickets for our productions can be purchased over the phone. Due to the current provincial guidelines we have we have only essential staff onsite at the College, but you can schedule a call with our box office by emailing boxoffice@ccpacanda.com to arrange a time and they will call you via their personal phone line.
