Urinetown is a musical; the title is sometimes given as Urinetown the Musical. Directed by Tony Award winner John Rando, the show features music by Mark Hollman, lyrics by Mark Hollman and Greg Kotis, and a book by Greg Kotis. It debuted at the New York International Fringe Festival, was produced Off-Broadway and then moved to Broadway, opening at the Henry Miller Theatre on September 20, 2001 (its planned opening having been postponed after the September 11, 2001 attacks). It ran on Broadway through January 18, 2004, closing with a total of 25 previews and 965 performances.
A national tour began in San Francisco, California on June 13, 2004. A Canadian cast put on one of the most highly acclaimed stagings, using the original New York set, in Toronto, Ontario during the summer of 2004. An open ended run began performances at Chicago's Mercury Theater in March 2006.
The original cast included Hunter Foster (as Bobby Strong, later replaced by Tom Cavanagh), Jeff McCarthy, and Ken Jennings.
