Event Details
Carrollwood Players Theatre presents
Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead
By Bert V. Royal
Directed by Thomas Pahl
A CWP Mainstage Production
November 15th through 23rd, 2019
Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm, Sundays at 3 pm
When CB’s dog dies from rabies, CB begins to question the existence of an afterlife. His best friend is too burnt out to provide any coherent speculation; his sister has gone goth; his ex- girlfriend has recently been institutionalized; and his other friends are too inebriated to give him any sort of solace. But a chance meeting with an artistic kid, 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.
Presented with the support of the Arts Council of Hillsborough County and the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners.
Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead is presented by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc., New York.
