About this Event
In Hollywood, talent helps… but ego wins.
Four Dogs and a Bone by John Patrick Shanley is a bold, unapologetic comedy that dives headfirst into the messy, cutthroat world of filmmaking. This is not a polite backstage farce. It’s a battlefield of clashing personalities, bruised egos, and verbal grenades.
Set on the set of a struggling film, the story follows a group of actors and creatives locked in a constant power struggle. Loyalties shift, manipulation runs rampant, and the dialogue is as sharp as it is unfiltered. The language gets raw, the insults get personal, and nothing is off-limits in the fight for control.
This is a play where characters say exactly what they think (sometimes shockingly so) and the result is as hilarious as it is uncomfortable.
Directed by Mathew Caine, this production embraces the grit, the speed, and the brutal honesty that make Shanley’s work crackle.
