Urinetown, at Towson U.

I got to give it up for the undergraduate production of 'Urinetown, The Musical' at Towson University, now through Dec. 9. Kids -- you've got a great show there! This is a smart, fresh, hip and hilarious -- I do not use that word hilarious easily -- production of the Greg Kotis-Mark Hollman Tony-winning musical from 2001. If you've never seen it, scrounge up 12 bucks ($7 for students), get to Towson's Center for the Arts and look for the theater with the toilet paper festooned above the doors. While I'd like to mention the entire cast -- almost every member of this motley crew seems to offer something you take home with you, and they're all involved in the clever choreography -- I clap a little harder for Bobby Libby (Officer Lockstock), Jaclyn Keough (Little Sally) and Bobby Strong (Ryan Haase). Not only do these students have talent, they have genuine star power. Compliments to director James Hunnicutt and scenic designer Daniel Ettinger, in particular. Great job!
