The musical written by Mark Hollman and Greg Kotsis, Urinetown is set in a Gotham-like city of the future where a hero leads the people in a revolt against people using private toilets.
Also represented in the West End by his productions of Richard III and The Commitments, Jamie Lloyd said earlier today "Having attracted a diverse audience of all ages at the St James earlier this year, I'm bursting to bring our production of this brilliantly off-kilter musical comedy to the West End, where I hope we'll make an even bigger splash".
Casting for the transfer is still to be announced.
