DOG MOM

directed by Heidi McKerley
“A LAUGH-OUT-LOUD FUNNY AND INSPIRING STORY”
-BroadwayWorld
A tail-wagging comedy! Newly-divorced Liz reluctantly fosters an older stray, convinced she’s signing up for short-term chaos. Instead, she gets an adorable and determined-to-love-her dog who won’t take “no” for an answer. As human actors embody both people friends and canines, this tender, funny, and quietly profound comedy unfolds through park meet-ups, awkward encounters, and doggy misadventures that slowly crack open Liz’s guarded heart. Celebrating the transformative power of companionship, this heartwarming story about second chances will leave you begging for more treats…er, laughs!
Trigger warning: a portion of this play gently addresses pet illness and loss.
