CAST:
MAN: Late 40's, executive caliber, stylishly dressed. Not necessarily what he seems.
MERLENE MERRIWEATHER: 50s-60s, overweight, red-cheeked, jovial, wiser than she looks.
GROVER COLTRANE: 20's, flashy, be-bopping wanna-be jazz musician; the music is always in his head.
DAVID P. DOWDY: 40's-50's, once dapper…going to seed; man of few words and many tics.
LIZZIE BODEN: Late teens, Goth, pierced and any other combination of outré facades
ROCCO BARBESI: 30's-40's, the definition of macho…in a dress
WOMAN: 30'S - early 40's, good-looking, a liberal in conservative clothes

In this hilarious, darkly comedic musical a Gotham-like city experiences a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, that has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity's most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides that he's had enough and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!
