EMPORIA — Drew Keller of Ellis, Kansas, is part of the cast and crew presenting “Moo Juice: The Musical” by Krista (Funky Mama) Eyler.

The show, inspired by the real-life exploits of Eyler’s own two sons, is ideal for kids and parents alike. The show is a rock n’ roll musical about a group of 5-year-olds making it through one very musical and comical day in daycare with their kind and harried teacher, Mrs. Patty. Each character in “Moo Juice” plays a role in maintaining order in what can be a very chaotic daily environment. The children must behave or their favored field trip to Happy Chippy Cheeseland will be cancelled.

Keller, a freshman theatre major, works in the scene shop.

The show is under the direction of Jim and Lindy Bartruff. Chris Lohkamp is the technical director and scene shop manager.

“Moo Juice: The Musical” runs July 25-27 at 7:30 p.m. in the Karl C. Bruder Theatre in King Hall at Emporia State University. A family matinee is scheduled for the final performance on Saturday July 28 at 2 p.m. Tickets cost $12 (adults), $10 (seniors) and $5 (students) and are available from the Memorial Union Ticket Office. Tickets are also available online at tickets.emporia.edu or by calling 620-341-6378.
