Dog Mom

Liz is a tough-as-nails New Yorker with a life falling apart faster than her morning bagel. When a scruffy stray dog shows up on her stoop, Liz — the least dog person on the planet — reluctantly agrees to foster it. This temporary inconvenience quickly turns into a heartwarming and hilarious journey of self-discovery. Who says you can’t teach an old dog (or a stubborn New Yorker) new tricks? In the city that never sleeps, it sometimes takes an unexpected friend to wake up what truly matters and that the most loyal friends find each other when they need it most.“In a month dedicated to being thankful, DOG MOM is a good reminder to us all of what is important in life. Simple pleasures such as feeling the sun on our face, going for a walk, chasing new scents (some better than others), and a dog’s love make our lives richer. Liz learns these and more as she’s given something she doesn’t think she wants — a dog [played by a human actor]. In the ensuing chaos, she meets an overbearing neighbor, Nell, and her eager dog, Ruben [also played by a human actor]. Encounters with strangers turn into teachable moments and drive home the point that we should ‘enjoy the process as much as the reward’ … It’s a laugh-out-loud funny and inspiring story that will stay with you long after you leave the theatre.” —Courtney Symes, Broadway World Read more
