Robocop Needs Your Help

Friday, March 30, 2012

We all know Robocop as everyone's favorite cyborg crimefighter, but he's also a comedian's dream: the perfect straight man -- well, the perfect straight man-machine hybrid.

Last year, the Ferndale comedy troupe Go Comedy! put together a musical spoof of the classic Detroit-based sci-fi flick about a monotoned, born-again cyborg cop and performed it to sold out audiences. This year, they're bringing the production back, with several tweaks and -- if Kickstarter provides -- souped-up backing music and an official soundtrack.
