ANNOUNCING AUDITIONS August 2nd and 3rd at 6pm
URINETOWN
Directed by Adrian Lee Bush
About the Story: In a drought-stricken town where private toilets are outlawed and even a trip to the bathroom costs a fee, the greedy Urine Good Company controls every last drop. When an idealistic young sanitation worker falls for the boss's daughter and leads a scrappy rebellion against the powers that be, the town discovers that doing the right thing and having a happy ending aren't always the same thing. A gleefully irreverent, Tony Award-winning satire that skewers capitalism, bureaucracy, and musical theater itself – while asking hard questions about sustainability, power, and who really pays the price.
"A sensational piece of performance art, one that acknowledges theater tradition and pushes it forward as well." — Bruce Weber, The New York Times
"For anarchic, first-rate comic relief, get thee to Urinetown." — David Cote, Time Out
"A zesty and full-bodied original." — Bruce Weber, The New York Times
"It contains a streak of modern sarcasm and political commentary that helps explain why Urinetown
has aged so remarkably well." — Elisabeth Vincentelli, reviewing the New York City Center revival for The New York Times
IT"S TIME TO MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
Why, you may ask? Well..
.We have TWO IMPROV SHOWS coming up on August 8th!!!
That's right! We have TWO shows on Saturday, August 8th. We have some fairly irrefutable evidence that this proven to be twice as much fun.
Our 7p offering will be a family-friendly romp. Come see the silly games and quick wits of our troupe members as they try to incorporate the audience's suggestions into the variety of kooky scenarios they have generated.
We will take a short break after the first show to let the gang rest and recover, and then we'll come back for more fun at 8:30p.
The second show is going to be geared towards adults, and may have a bit more bold and bawdy language (YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!). Be prepared for a little bit of anything and everything as the troupe takes their improv to the weirdest and wildest places they can imagine.
Tell your friends and neighbors, because Sharing is Caring!
It's $15 to get in the door. Separate shows means separate admission, so no confusing yourselves that this is a 2-for-1. But, if you want to see both, we will offer a discount for the second show because we love you guys!
Do you have a budding comedian in your house? Does your young person like to create something out of nothing and then offer it with a little humor? Well, this workshop may be just the thing to help them sharpen those skills!
Improv Comedy basics are extremely useful for actors in improving listening and cooperation.
Our Improv for Young Actors Workshop focuses on basic improv structures and sketch comedy forms while building a world and plot together by developing characters.
We have limited space available for this workshop on Saturday, August 15th.
**Please note- Due to the rigorous nature of the material covered, we are limiting this workshop to students ages 12 and up.
