Photo Flash: First Look at Wyn Wilson, Michael Mittman, Rachel King & More in URINETOWN at The Barn Stage Company

URINETOWN continues The Barn Stage Company's 2015 Summer Series. After working on the national tour of MURDER FOR TWO and Disney's THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME, J. Scott Lapp returns to The Barn Stage Company directing this hilarious tale about the lack of water in a mythical town. The Barn Stage Company's engagement began performances on August 20 and will run through August 30, 2015, in the newly renovated Truax Building in Old Town Temecula. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast onstage below!

One of the most uproariously funny musicals in recent years, URINETOWN is a hilarious tale of greed, corruption, love, and revolution in a time when water is worth its weight in gold. In a Gotham-like city (not too different than the one we live in today), a terrible water shortage (sound familiar?), caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets (Hey...It Could Happen!). The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity's most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides he's had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!

The show is led by an all-star-cast from all over Southern California. Michael Mittman, graduate of NYU's Tisch School for the arts joins the cast as Bobby Strong. He has performed at The Guthrie, The Ordway and the Helen Hayes Theater.
