Theatre of Wonder presents

Following the death of a beloved pet, four middle school students wrestle with loss, new friendships, and the challenges of fitting in in a post-Covid world.

According to playwright Cheri Magid, “When I started writing ‘Playing Dog’, my kids’ play about two tween sisters reeling from the death of their dog, I knew I was writing a comedy about grief. What I didn’t know was I was also writing about ultimate frisbee. And what I absolutely didn’t know was I was also writing about death metal. But here we are.”

This delightful play for families, recommended for ages 8 and up, mixes realism with fantasy and includes several original death metal songs, performed to comic effect.

Presented by Shout Out Saugerties’ Little Theatre of Wonder at Bridge Street Theatre, 44 West Bridge Street in Catskill, at 2:00pm on Saturday October 12!
