BREAKDOWN

HORIZON THEATRE 2026 SEASON

SYNOPSIS:

Just when Liz thinks her life can’t get any more chaotic, the universe hands her the one thing she definitely doesn’t want — an adorable, unshakeable, absolutely-determined-to-love-her dog! A heartwarming comedy about an unlikely friendship between a reluctant human and her persistent pup.

NOTE:

The dogs should not act like dogs but rather embody the essence of a dog. A dog living in a human body rather than a human living in a dog body.

SEEKING:

LIZ - (Female identifying, 40–50)

Reluctant dog mom who finds and takes in a stray that changes her life. She’s got a natural gravitas about her, but at the top of the play, she’s a little broken and a little stressed. She’s recently broken up with a long-time boyfriend and is in a new apartment on her own.

DOG - (Female identifying, 30–40)

A loving, happy stray dog that Liz finds. An older, but enthusiastic golden retriever who gives unconditional love.

NELL - (Female identifying, 40–50)

Liz’s next-door neighbor, a fast-talking broad who runs hot, which riles up her dog, Ruben. Much slighter than Ruben, but he knows who is boss. Nell is divorced from her female partner, and she raised two kids alone. She is determined to be friends with Liz. (Also plays: Liz’s Ex's Dog, Lady Jogger)

RUBEN - (Male identifying, 35–45)

Nell’s large, rambunctious dog. Ruben is nuts. He’s bigger than Nell, but he knows who is boss. (Also plays: Liz’s Ex, Passerby)

SWING - (Male identifying, 30–50)

Plays multiple roles — Shelter Worker, Jamie (Liz’s gossipy friend), Dog Park Goer (50s–70s, female), Man Vet.
