Since 1930, the Wilshire Theatre has accrued plenty of good historical anecdotes. (The first Donald Duck cartoon was shown here; Marilyn Monroe attended the premiere of How to Marry a Millionaire; Ronald Reagan came to a special screening of Elvis Presley's G.I. Blues.) In 2004, there's..."Urinetown." Haven't heard of it? You've been in LA too long—it took New York City by storm a couple years ago, going on to win several Tony awards.
