I just found out that James Barbor of Jane Eyre and Assassins fame was in one of the original workshops of Urinetown. Out of curiosity does anyone know what role he played?

I don't know which role he played in the workshop, but towards the end of the show's run he played Officer Lockstock.

I can only imagine what that was like.

Yeah, he played Lockstock in the workshop, but by the time it got to Bway, he was in Jane Eyre.
