Zeus the Dog to Appear in Engeman Theater's CAMELOT, 9/15 - 11/6

On July 31, an open casting call was held at the John W. Engeman Theater at Northport for a unique role. The auditions were for a Dog to play the role of Horrid in our next show, Camelot! There is a short scene in act 1 that requires a live dog to play the part. So we held open auditions for a local canine.

The description of the part was; Horrid The Dog - A big, older, sweet and passive dog that will be calm onstage and not bark. A sheepdog would be ideal, but a lab, golden retriever, wheaten terrier, or any other large shaggy mutt will do. This dog has definitely seen better days! In one funny scene in Act One in Camelot.

After all the auditions were completed we are proud to announce what dog will star in Camelot!

Robert, a Landseer Newfoundland from Coram. His owners are John & Kathi Covello. Landseer Newfies are black & white.

Zeus, a St. Bernard from Centerport. His owners are Dennis & Christina Kearney. He is 14 months old, 150 pounds and growing. He expected to get close to 200 pounds.

Robert Covello and Zeus Kearney will share the role of Horrid during the 8 week run of Camelot. Camelot open September 15 and runs through November 6, 2011.
