Urinetown by Mark Hollmann & Greg Kotis Directed by Jeremiah Reid In the not-so-distant future, a terrible water shortage and 20-year drought has led to a government ban on private toilets and a proliferation of paid public toilets, owned and operated by a single megalomaniac company: the Urine Good Company. If the poor don’t obey the strict laws prohibiting free urination, they’ll be sent to the dreaded and mysterious “Urinetown.” After too long under the heel of the malevolent Caldwell B. Cladwell, the poor stage a revolt, led by a brave young hero, fighting tooth and nail for the freedom to pee “wherever you like, whenever you like, for as long as you like, and with whomever you like.” A brilliant satire, Urinetown is a wickedly funny, fast-paced, and surprisingly intelligent comedic romp. Tickets: General $20 Students/Seniors/Military: $15 Performance Dates:

Please consider a donation to Magnolia Arts Center. Producing a theater season is costly since the royalties for each show must be paid in full before we advertise or promote the show. The royalty total for the 2025 season is approximately $13,000. Maintaining the building continues to present financial challenges. We currently need to repair a leaky roof and update the sinks in the concession area and dressing room. MAC’s electric bill runs about $800-$900 monthly.
