“Cows that type? Hens on strike! Whoever heard of such a thing!” Farmer Brown cries.
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 moving musical about negotiation and compromise, based on the Caldecott Honor Book by Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin.
The 11:30am performance will feature American Sign Language Interpreting.

American Sign Language Interpreting at Select Performances
The Music Hall strives to eliminate barriers to attendance for all audiences, including people who are hard of hearing or deaf. For theatergoers who are hard of hearing or deaf and use American Sign Language as their primary means of communication, we provide an experienced theatre interpreter who stands to the side of the stage and translates what the actors are saying or singing into American Sign Language (ASL).
