Stray Dog Story: An Adventure in Ten Scenes

Rating:
Summary: Poof! The Fairy Dog Mother Makes it so!
Review: I produced and directed the Los Angeles Premiere of this play in 1998 and it ran for 14 weeks instead of the original six. A big hit.

It is a poignant look at how humans treat each other and how we are kinder to dogs than we are to humans.It concerns John who wishes his dog Buddy were a human being because Buddy would make the perfect lover. Poof! The Fairy Dog Mother makes it so.

But when John gets murdered--Buddy the dog is left to fend for himself as a gay man in New York City. It is a funny black comedy by Robert Chesley who also wrote the very successful Jerker. This play, as we found out in its Los Angeles run is an undiscovered classic.
