Little Sally:Say Officer Lockstock, is this where you tell the audience about the water shortage? Officer Lockstock: What's that Little Sally? LS:You know, the water shotage. The hard times. The draught. A shortage so awful that private toilets eventually became unthinkable. A premise so absurd that. . . OL:Whoa, there Little Sally. Not all at once. They'll hear more about the water shortage in the next scene. LS:Oh, I guess you don't want to overload them with too much exposition, huh. OL:Everything in it's time Little Sally. You're too tou to understand it now, but nothing can kill a show like too much exposition. LS:How about bad subject matter? OL:Well- LS:Or a bad title, even? That could kill a show pretty good. OL:Well Little Sally, suffice it to say that in Urinetown (the musical) everyone has to use public bathrooms in order to take care of their private business. That's the central conceit of the show!

  • Hope: Do you think you'd be feeling as bad as you do if you didn't have a heart?

Bobby: I don't know. I suppose not.

Hope: Of course you wouldn't. Because then you'd be dead!
