Hey folks

The 1st UK production of the multi award winning Off Broadway play is moving to the Lowry theatre after completing a sell out extended run at the fringe venue Taurus on Manchesters Canal Street.
The show plays the 22nd, 23rd and 24th of January and tickets are now on sale

Dog Sees God is an outrageous comedy following the Charlie Brown and the Kids from Peanuts now that they are teenagers.Gone are the cute kite flying kids and now are replaced with Bad Mouthed high School Prom Queens, Homophobes, Homosexuals, Pot Smoking, Beer Drinking 17 year olds.

The story follows CB trying to come to terms with the death of his dog (snoopy) and the answer to the question 'Is there life after death?'
But with his friends now to self involved to provide him with the answers he seeks, he turns to a certain piano playing childhood chum who offers him answers and a whole lot more, changing his life and his gang of pals lives forever!

This is a very funny and outrageous play but if you have never heard of Peanuts it really does not matter as it works as a stand alone play also

Please note its not suitable for kids, or anyone who hates swearing lol

Here is the recent news story from Whats On Stage who will also be running an exclusive interview with the american author Bert V Royal as well as an interview with Adele Stanhope who co owns Vertigo with myself and who is playing Trisha.

Well the show opened last night amd had a great 1st night
Whats On Stage Manchester gave the show a 4 star review which was fantastic.

A few older audience members left at the interval (about 3) as its pretty OTT and Zany and more for a youthful audience

But all is going good x

This isn't the 1st UK production. I saw it at the Tristan Bates theatre a couple of years back with a really talented cast and thought it was a great little play. Works really well I thought as a small fringe play.

It most certainly is the 1st UK production, the one you saw must have been an ilegal production

This is the 1st one to be given the rights to in the UK and also authorised by the author Bert V Royal, thats why the production has been getting so much press around the world

Im glad you enjoyed the production you saw though
