That's right, girls, in the current revival of "Into The Woods," now at the St. James Theatre, the one who gets all the applause is Milky White! This bovine lovely stops the show at every turn, and Julie Taymor should be envious, for not since "The Lion King" first opened has anything like this been achieved.
Milky White is the cow who Jack's mother wants him to sell, only he won't part with her. She is operated by puppetry, and by theatrical magic seems more real than any of the actors playing characters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am telling you; I hope she gets a TONY nomination this coming season. I am almost considering seeing this, just for her!
I have always loved cows, from Elsie, to Ferdinand, The Bull. But Milky White is a real heart stealer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The latest in a bevy of theatrical cows! Remember Caroline, in "Gypsy???????????"
