A dystopian future where people are forced to pay to use the restroom.

Spoiler Warning for the ending: Where many musicals cop out and tie everything up with a neat, happy bow, Urinetown commits fully to its cynical worldview. The rebellion wins, but because they don't understand macroeconomics or water conservation, the water supply dries up completely, and everyone dies. The script handles this apocalypse with a surreal, upbeat musical number ("I See a River") that is chillingly funny. It is one of the bravest endings in modern musical theatre, completely recontextualizing everything the audience just watched.

We are introduced to CLAD, a young woman who is trapped in a relationship with OGRABBEH. CLAD sings about her desire for freedom in the song "Girl's Lament."
