Westport Country Playhouse Family Festivities Series will bring a popular children’s book to life on stage with “Click, Clack, Moo,” on Saturday, May 16, at 1 and 4 p.m. The TheaterWorks USA musical production is based on the Caldecott Honor Book by Doreen Cronin with Illustrations by Betsy Lewin.

“Cows that type? Hens on strike! Whoever heard of such a thing!,” cries Farmer Brown. When his granddaughter Jenny comes for a visit, Farmer Brown declares the farm a “tech-free zone.” He takes her laptop in the cold barn with the shivering cows who use her computer to type messages requesting blankets. “No way,” replies Farmer Brown. “No blankets!” So the cows go on strike and the chickens join them in solidarity. No blankets? No milk, no eggs! Will Farmer Brown give in to the animals’ demands? Will Jenny get her computer back? Find out in a hilariously “moooo-ving” musical about negotiation and compromise.

“Click, Clack, Moo” book is by Billy Aronson, lyrics by Kevin Del Aguila, music by Brad Alexander, original direction by John Rando, original choreography by Wendy Seyb, scenic design by Beowulf Boritt, costume design by Lora LaVon, and orchestrations by Brad Alexander.
