CLICK, CLACK, MOO Coming to Byham Theater & Other Regional Locations Next Month

The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust announces a Pittsburgh International Children's Theater presentation of Theatreworks USA in Click, Clack, Moo from January 11-18, 2015, at six performance locations throughout the region. Citizens Bank is the season sponsor of 2014 2015 Pittsburgh International Children's Theater Family Series.

Theatreworks USA's performance of Click, Clack, Moo features a book by Billy Aronson (TV's "The Wonder Pets," "Postcards from Buster"), lyrics by Kevin Del Aguila (Altar Boyz, Theatreworks' If You Give a Pig a Pancake), and music by Brad Alexander (Rodgers Award-winning composer of Theatreworks USA's Lilly's Big Day and Just So Stories). The show was originally directed by John Rando (Tony Award-winner for Broadway's Urinetown), with choreography by Wendy Seyb (Off-Broadway's The Toxic Avenger). Designers include scenery by Beowulf Boritt (Broadway's 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, LoveMusik) and costumes by Lora LaVon (Theatreworks USA's Junie B. Jones and The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere). The current tour of Click, Clack, Moo is directed and choreographed by Steven Cardona, with stage management by Rafi Levavy.

All day long Farmer Brown hears "click clack moo, clickety clackety moo..." The cows are typing and protesting their working conditions! "Cows that type? Hens on strike! Whoever heard of such a thing," Farmer Brown cries. This hilariously "moo-ving" musical of Click, Clack, Moo is about negotiation and compromise and is based on the Caldecott Award-wining book by Doreen Cronin with pictures by Betsy Lewin.

The cast of Click Clack Moo includes, alphabetical by role, Kyra Wagstaff (Darlene), Michael Taglieri (Duck), Noam Tomaschoff (Farmer Brown), Taylor Rathus (Jenny), Mikhail Thompson (Loretta) and Courtney Nolan Smith (Maddie). This 60-minute musical is recommended for audiences age 4 and up.
