From the AANews: “EMU brings audience ‘Into the Woods.’”
If a production of James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim’s fairy tale mash-up musical “Into the Woods” isn’t enough, by itself, to bring you to Eastern Michigan University, would a robotic cow seal the deal?
“We have a (student) robotics team here, and they have been working away, designing a robot for us,” said director Ken Stevens. “Besides moving, it’s supposed to move its head, and open and close its eyes, and eat things and die.”
When I think of musical theater, I think of robots.
Anyway, it’s too late for this weekend’s shows, but it’s on Sunday May 31 and Thursday-Saturday, June 4-6.
