This sweet, funny and at times emotional love story! Dan is a retired laborer in Dublin who wards off loneliness with his beloved dog, Chapatti. He meets Betty (Sarah Burcon) who is, by her own admission, a bit of a "crazy cat lady" with some 19 cats. These two souls are brought together and form a bond in part because of the love they have for their furry friends. There are laughs, and certainly revelations about how leaving ourselves open to the love of people, and pets, can help us get through any rough patches.
About the play, Chicago theatre critic wrote: Highly Recommended
"...Chapatti is a warm, gentle story demonstrating that love and romance can happen again even after many years. This wonderfully charming two-hander is both hopeful and uplifting. Credit Christian O' Reilly with writing a gentle, sublime and honest script that drills home the need for and the power of human companionship. While dogs and cats can aid us through the lonely rough spots in our loves, there is no substitute for tender human connections. Gaining love and romance, at any age, is the ultimate joy we can hope for."
