Bowen, Lakin, Porter, et al. Set for L.A. Premiere of Dog Sees God

Nick Ballard, Andrea Bowen, Wyatt Fenner, Christine Lakin, Megan McNulty, Joseph Porter, and Lauren Robyne will star in the Havok Theatre Company’s production of Bert V. Royal’s Dog Sees God, May 31-July 6 at the Hudson Backstage Theatre. The production, which will open officially on June 6, will be directed by Nick DeGruccio.

An “unauthorized parody” of the famous Peanuts comic strip, the play concerns a character called CB, his drama-queen little sister, his pyromaniac ex-girlfriend, an abused pianist, two drunk cheerleaders, and a burnt-out Buddhist. The play won the 2004 New York International Fringe Festival’s Excellence Award for Best Overall Production.

The show’s creative team includes Tom Buderwitz (sets), Steven Young (lighting), and Fionnegan Murphy (sound). DeGruccio is currently represented by The Andrews Brothers; his many other credits include Jekyll & Hyde, Thrill Me, Zanna, Dont!, 1776, and The Laramie Project. He is a winner of the LA Ovation Award and the Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle Award.
