BBPAC Teaneck's 'Late Night' Series Features DOG SEES GOD By Burt V. Royal
The Black Box Performing Arts Center continues to emerge as the Tri-State area's premiere destination for both cutting-edge professional theater and collaborative arts education - in the heart of Teaneck, just a quick ride over the George Washington Bridge.
Now through May 12, Black Box's Late Night Series returns with Bert V. Royal's DOG SEES GOD: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead, presented in special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc, NY.
When CB's dog dies from rabies, CB (Joseph Ramondino) begins to question the existence of an afterlife. His best friend (Jason Felix) is too burnt out to provide any coherent speculation; his sister (Allison Falkenstern) has gone goth; his ex-girlfriend (Larissa Hughes) has recently been institutionalized; and his other friends (Michael Gardiner, Angela Peletier, Bishon Prushankin) are too inebriated to give him any sort of solace. But a chance meeting with an artistic kid (Nachi Lederer), the target of this group's bullying, offers CB a peace of mind and sets in motion a friendship that will push teen angst to the very limits. Drug use, suicide, eating disorders, teen violence, rebellion and sexual identity collide and careen toward an ending that's both haunting and hopeful.
