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 he's had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!

Featuring the Theater Arts Classes of 2016, 2017 and 2018.

The Waterwell Drama Program at PPAS is a four-year intensive program in acting and theatermaking. Our approach emphasizes rigor and wholesome discipline alongside curiosity, generosity and an orientation toward others. Our curriculum provides students with the artistic and personal skills to be leaders in the field, their community, and in whatever profession they choose to pursue.
