Giving News & Events

The Educational Foundation sponsors a variety of fundraising events every year:

Urinetown Benefit Night

An uproariously funny award-winning musical, Urinetown tells the tale of greed, corruption, love, and revolution in a time when water is worth its weight in gold. In a Gotham-like city, the terrible water shortage caused by a 20-year drought has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. Citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity's most basic needs. But one hero decides he's had enough, and plans a revolution to lead his people to freedom!
