Walmartopia is a musical with music by Andrew Rohn and book by Catherine Capellaro. It is an irreverent political satire of big business and eternal smiley faces, a musical tale of a single mom who speaks up to her corporate employer and finds herself and her young daughter jettisoned to a future where Wal-Mart dominates the entire world.{{cite web |last=Dale |first=Michael |title=Walmartopia: Put On A Happy Face |url=https://www.broadwayworld.com/article/Walmartopia-Put-On-A-Happy-Face-20060828 |website=BroadwayWorld |access-date=June 9, 2022 |date=August 28, 2006}}{{cite web |last=James |first=Caryn |title=Attention, Shoppers: Anguish in Aisle 4 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/04/theater/reviews/04walm.html |website=The New York Times |access-date=June 9, 2022 |date=September 4, 2007}}
