Main Street Theater Presents DOG ACT, Now thru 7/29
Dog Act opens tonight, July 13 and runs through July 29 at Main Street Theater – Rice Village, 2540 Times Blvd.
Performances are on Thursdays at 7:30pm, Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, and Sundays at 3pm. Tickets start at $20 (previews are $10), depending on date and section, and are on sale in person at the Main Street Theater Box Office, 2540 Times Blvd., via phone at 713.524.6706, or online at MainStreetTheater.com. Opening night tickets are all only $20, and there will be free beer after the show.
A post-apocalyptic vaudeville comedy, Dog Act follows Zetta Stone, a traveling performer, and her companion Dog (a young man undergoing a voluntary species demotion) as they walk through the wilderness of the former U.S.A., heading toward a gig in China, if only they can find it… Recommended for mature audiences due to profanity, violence, and adult situations.
Main Street Theater produced Ms. Adams' play Or, last season.
Post-show Discussion with the Artists: Following the performance on Sunday, July 15, there will be a discussion with director Andrew Ruthven and the cast.
