Urinetown: The Musical
It’s a privilege to pee. And in this hilarious Tony-winning satire, that privilege comes at a price. In a dystopia ruled by drought and corporate greed, public toilets are the law— and rebellion smells suspiciously like revolution. Equal parts absurd, poignant, and laugh-out-loud funny, Urinetown skewers capitalism, power, and musical theatre itself. No one is safe. Not even the audience. Bring your sense of humour — and your spare change. URINETOWN is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com

Harris Cashes Out!
Forty years ago, composer/lyricist Harris Wellborn wrote an off-Broadway musical which closed after one performance. This comedy finds the now elderly tunesmith down on his luck, living in a run-down apartment building dependent on the charity of this domineering sister - yet still dreaming of making it on Broadway. The laughs unfold when the literate and witty Harris is thrown together with the flaky young woman who lives down the hall. His life then takes a hilarious turn when her scheming boyfriend comes up with a devious plan to cash in on Harris' past.

Meet the Creetins — a gloriously dysfunctional family stumbling through secrets, scandals, and suburban absurdity.

With biting wit and outrageous characters, The Family Creetin is a wild ride through emotional landmines, dark humour, and the strange comforts of home. Expect laughter, gasps, and a few uncomfortable truths.
