Kansas City, MO – One of Kansas City's newest theater troupes is called Princess Squid Productions. Its second show, following last fall's rock version of the life of Joan of Arc, is called Furies. As KCUR's Steve Walker reports, it contains artforms that Kansas City audiences haven't seen mixed in quite this fashion.
