Today at the Editor’s glance: City Repertory Theatre’s production of “Urinetown,” the musical, directed by John Sbordone, at 7:30 p.m. in CRT’s black box theater at City Marketplace, 160 Cypress Point Parkway, Suite B207, Palm Coast. Tickets are $30 adults and $15 students, available online here or by calling 386-585-9415, or at the door. As FlaglerLive’s Rick de Yampert writes, “The Tony-winning Broadway show, with music by Mark Hollmann, lyrics by Hollmann and Greg Kotis, and book by Kotis, is set in a dystopia in which a severe 20-year water shortage has forced the masses to use pay toilets controlled by a mega-corporation headed by the villainous Caldwell B. Cladwell (played by City Rep veteran Earl Levine). The draconian policies of his corporation, Urine Good Company, are enforced by the corrupt politicians and policemen he’s bribed, and urinal matrons such as Penelope Pennywise (Phillipa Rose), who makes Nurse Ratched seem like Mother Teresa.” See the full preview: “‘Urinetown,’ an Unserious Musical For Our Times, and For Our Town, at City Repertory Theatre.” The Stetson University Concert Band, Douglas Phillips, conductor, is in concert at 7:30 p.m. at Lee Chapel in Elizabeth Hall, 421 N. Woodland Blvd., DeLand. Admission: $10 adults, $5 youth and free for Stetson faculty, staff and students with a Stetson University ID and ages 12 and under. Note: Seating is extremely limited. Tickets will be available on a first come, first served basis. For more details, see the School of Music’s concert website. And this never gets old, never falls short of restoring faith in whatever faith you choose to have, whether it’s oneself, creation, creativity, or 12 years:

“No, Wilder, no. You’ve got to listen to me,” she continued, her voice edgy and brittle. “People like fear. We all want to be frightened and we all want somebody to tell us how to live and who to fuck and why we should do this and think that. And that’s the Devil’s job. That’s why I’m important to them, Wilder, because if you can make up a terrorist you’ve giving people the Devil. They love the Devil. They need the Devil. That’s my job. You get me?”
–Richard Flanagan, from “The Unknown Terrorist” (2006).
