Stage 62 presents "Urinetown"

Performances on November 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, & 19 at 8:00 pm and 13 & 20 at 2:00 pm

In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage caused by a 20-year drought has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides that he’s had enough and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!

Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical could be, Urinetown catapults the “comedic romp” into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter.

Veterans Day Ceremony
2022-11-11 13:30 - 14:00 | PA
Please join Congressman Conor Lamb, members of Carnegie American Legion Post 82, members of the 9th Pennsylvania Reserves, elected officials, friends and colleagues at 1:30 pm on Veterans Day, Friday November 11. We are delighted that sixth graders from Carnegie Elementary school are participating in the program with brief poetry readings. The short, moving ceremony ends with a bugler playing Taps.

When we developed Library Park, a flagpole opposite the Library entrance became an essential part of the design. Since November 2017, a Veterans Day ceremony has become tradition at the Library & Music Hall.

As home to the Captain Thomas Espy Post No. 153 of the Grand Army of the Republic, Veterans Day has a special resonance at the Carnegie Carnegie. Founded in 1866 for veterans of the Union Armed Service, the G.A.R. laid the foundation for all veterans’ organizations to come. The Espy Post has been documented as the most intact G.A.R. post in the country.

The ceremony will be followed a coffee and cookies reception in the Lincoln Gallery. The Captain Thomas Espy Post will be open from 12:30 until 3:00.

The ceremony takes place rain or shine.
