YOUNGSTOWN, OH (April 10, 2026): Tickets are now on sale for The Youngstown Playhouse’s upcoming production of Urinetown the Musical. This hilarious musical satire, with music and lyrics by Mark Hollmann and book and lyrics by Greg Kotis, is directed by Nate Beagle and will be performed on The Main Stage of The Youngstown Playhouse for 6 performances May 29 through June 7th.

In Urinetown the Musical, in the not so distant future, private bathrooms have been outlawed due to a 20 year drought. In order to conserve water, citizens must do their private business for a fee at public toilets owned by The Urine Good Company (UGC) Corporation. If citizens fail to comply the maximum penalty is to be banished to a place called Urinetown. When the fee to pee is raised, a young dreamer from the poor side of town leads an uprising against UGC’s tyranny so the people can pee for free. Urinetown is high satire that parodies authoritarian politics, classism, oligarchy , and Musical Theater itself.

Urinetown the Musical is directed by Nate Beagle, musically directed by Tyler Stouffer, choreographed by Colleen Chance, stage managed by Isa Foltz, and features a cast of Playhouse veterans and new faces including Ben Bogen, Becca Campbell, patty Carr, Chey Carr, Colleen Chance, Craig Conrad, Rachael Conrad, Kage Coven, Hannah DeRenzis, Mary Dippolito, Ben Doss, Rachel Franek, Alex IMwalle, Brooke Jonas, Logan Kaminski, Alyssa Mooore, Arcale Peace, Caitlyn Santiago, Andy Scott, Marissa Scott, Peter Sherman, Kathryn Stanton, Tyler Stouffer, Brian Suchora, John Webber, and Sarah Whitlatch.
