TheatreworksUSA’s musical Click, Clack, Moo—based on the Caldecott Honor book Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type by Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin—concerns a herd of cows who protest their working conditions in a unique way. They type on a laptop. When Farmer Brown declares a “tech-free zone,” he puts his granddaughter Jenny’s laptop computer and printer in the cold barn with the shivering cows. The creative cows use the equipment to type and print messages, which Duck delivers to the stubborn farmer. When the cows withhold their milk, the chickens join the strike and withhold their eggs. Click, Clack, Moo ultimately proves to be a “moo-ving” musical about compromise. TheatreworksUSA specializes in productions for families and children. Since 1961, the company has entertained and enlightened a total of more than eighty-five million people at home in New York City and on the road in the United States and Canada.
