About the Show:
Don't let the name fool you. First an off-Broadway hit and later a Tony-nominated musical, Urinetown is a hilarious tale of greed, corruption, love, and revolution in a time when water is worth its weight in gold. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical could be, Urinetown catapults the “comedic romp” into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter.

Performance dates: May 11 - 28, 2011
Times: Evening performances 7:30pm (no Monday, Tuesday or Sundays), Saturday matinees 2:00pm on May 14 and 21, 2011.
Location: The Grand Theatre, 1575 South State Street, Salt Lake City, UT 84115

Draper Historic Theatre, a Non-Profit Organization, will hold auditions for Charlotte’s Web- the Musical on Saturday March 5th from Noon until 3:00 PM.

When Wilbur is in danger of being slaughtered by the farmer, Fern pleads for his life and vows to care for him, while Charlotte develops a real strategy for saving him by writing messages praising Wilbur (such as "Some Pig") in her web in order to persuade the farmer to let him live.
