It was truly a dog fete dog night Friday night as the majority of the group rolled out to see Katy Hickman’s splendid Bright Boy: The Passion of Rober McNamara, produced by Ensemble Studio Theatre at the Electric Lodge in Venice. It was truly gratifying to see a play that we had all read and reread make it to the stage, and wonderful to see Katy’s passion brought to life. Mickey Birnbaum even rolled from Kansas - escaping tornadoes (it’s a twister!)- where he’s been doing the Inge residency. You can read all about his ruby slipper life on his dogearblog: IT IS IN THE BREWING LUMINOUS.

In other Dog news, Joy and I were featured in a Backstage West article on women playwrights: Sisters on Stage. And feel free to FIB on my blog — To Be Determined….(and what’s a fib, you might ask…click the link).

That’s the dog-doings that I know.
