BWW Review: Art Factory's SWEENEY TODD is Well Sung But Rough Around the Edges
by Luke Evans
- Apr 27, 2022
This sentimental value proved to be a benefit for Art Factory’s intimate production, which hits some satisfying notes amid some noticeable stumbles. While I delighted in hearing the songs that I have loved since I was a faux-edgy 16 year old, I daresay that a lesser Sweeney Todd fanatic may have enjoyed this production a smidge less.
BWW Review: Phone Rings, Door Chimes, in Comes COMPANY at ArtFACTORY!
by Alric Davis
- Dec 6, 2021
This hilarious Tony Award winning musical surrounds confirmed bachelor Robert on and around his thirty-fifth birthday. Through a series of dinner parties, drinks, weddings, and dates, Robert weighs the pros and cons of staying single with his zany group of closest friends. Including beloved songs by Stephen Sondheim like 'Being Alive,' 'Another Hundred People,' 'The Ladies Who Lunch,' and 'Getting Married Today,' and a side-splitting book by George Furth, COMPANY is a true gem of musical theatre. You'll find it hard not to relate with Bobby and his friends as they hold a magnifying glass to relationships and marriage, with tongues planted firmly in cheeks.
URINETOWN The Musical Opens At ArtFACTORY, February 13
by A.A. Cristi
- Jan 31, 2020
What is URINETOWN? Well, it's a terrible title for a musical, that's for sure. artFACTORY takes you into the not-so-distant future, when a twenty-year drought has turned the Earth into a dystopian wasteland. With water regulated by the government, citizens are required to pay a fee at public facilities in order to a?oetake care of their personal business.a?? That's the general set up, but too much exposition can kill a plot, so you'll just have to see this ridiculous satire for yourselves. URINETOWN runs February 13 through March 1 at artFACTORY. We'd usually put some kind of attention-grabbing ploy to buy tickets here, but that seems kind of pointless because... who'd want to see a musical called a?oeURINETOWN?a?? anyway? Not me.

Bayou City Theatrics' URINETOWN Begins This Week
by Tyler Peterson
- Jan 6, 2016
Don't let the title fool you; Urinetown is not a pipeline straight to dirty toilet humor! Urinetown is a satirical and cerebral look at how greed and corruption can impact a community. Most of all, Urinetown is a hilarious evening of theatre that indulges in making fun of itself. The ten-time Tony nominated show (2002 winner of Best Score, Best Book and Best Direction), also won the Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards for Best Musical. Bayou City Theatrics brings the absurd musical comedy to The Kaleidoscope January 8 through 24, 2016.
