Title: If Only It Were Funny
Product review: A play named Urinetown. An opening called "Too Much Exposition." A story revolving around the right to pee for free. Sounds like the makings of a funny, funny show.Unfortunately, it's not. It's heavy-handed and preachy, which would be fine, if only the show were funny. I am amazed as I listen that this show does not even make attempts at real humor. I never laughed once while listening to this disc.There are some redeeming qualities. The cast is good, and the score's a refreshing homage to the classics of theater. But on the whole, I wouldn't recommend this show to any but the most devoted of musical theater fans
