A pickle in the brine

Absolutely fantastic is really all I can say about this. Each line is more clever than the next and the music is absolutely genius. Each song is unique and each lyric has value. The show has a great message and is hilarious. I've read the script and listened to the music at least 50 times and I still laugh out loud every time. I can't even pick my favorite song or scene or say anything bad about it.
A good script companion

I used this book in our amateur production of the musical and I recommend this script. The pictures and story behind the musical was interesting.
Most thought provoking musical ever written!

I always thought "Forum" was the best musical written but that is now in second place to Urinetown. This one also has a lot to think about as a commentary on our times. Shouldn't be missed.
A Masterpiece in Every Way!!

This item is the script for the Broadway play. It contains every bit of dialogue, song lyrics, and blocking used in the Broadway Musical. This script is absolutely phenomenal. I've listened to the recording an innumberable number of times, have seen the show on Broadway, and have read the script several times since then. It is just so funny! I don't know how they came up with this crazy idea and ingenious music and lyrics and dialogue, but if you're looking for an amazingly funny script to read, this is it!This book also includes some nice forwards by both the writer and composer, giving a long background on how this play came to be. A "Must Have" for any fan of this show, any musical theatre fan, or any fan of insane comedy!
