Theater 29 announces open auditions for the edgy new Broadway hit, “Urine Town the Musical.” Yes that’s really the name of this hilarious satire of the legal system, populism, municipal politics, social irresponsibility, and musical theatre itself. The multi-award winning show is a triple Tony Winner and is set in a Gotham like city where a terrible water shortage has led to a government-enforced ban on toilets. A colorful cast of characters is needed and our entertainment reporter Rebecca Havely has all the specifics…
