| Howard Miller takes a look at Urinetown at City Center Encores!: When Urinetown opened on Broadway back in 2001, by way of the New York International Fringe Festival and a follow-up Off Broadway run, it was a decided hit, picking up ten Tony nominations and winning three: for Greg Kotis's witty book, for Kotis and Mark Hollmann's clever score, and for John Rando's brilliant direction that found a perfect balance between spoofy meta-theatrical satire and an audience-wooing tale of a fight for social justice, all of it wrapped in a delicious coating of irony. Now, 24 years later, a revival sits in the hands of the folks at Encores! at New York City Center, where its glow is frustratingly diminished in a production that only occasionally hits the mark. |
