Show Description:

"Scavengers ain’t got no appreciation of culture." - Zetta

While the live-performance season is on hold nationwide, The Seeing Place (TSP) continues to produce great plays by distinguished playwrights online. Throughout our global pandemic we’ve come to realize that storytelling, about the past, present and future, are more important than ever. Enter Liz Duffy Adams irreverent post-apocalyptic play DOG ACT.

The play follows the adventures of Zetta Stone, a traveling performer, and her companion Dog (a young man undergoing a “voluntary species demotion”) as they wander through the former northeastern United States. Zetta, Dog and their little troupe are on their way to a gig in China, assuming they can find it...and survive the journey. DOG ACT is a theatrical, darkly comic variation on the classic doomsday genre, with five original songs.

DOG ACT features TSP veterans Erin Cronican, Robin Friend, William Ketter, Jon L Peacock, Hailey Vest, Brandon Walker (who appeared in one of the first ever productions of the play in 2005), and Weronika Helena Wozniak. It is directed by Erin Cronican, with stage management by Shannon Formas. Sound design and music composition by Brandon Walker, with scenic and costume design by Erin Cronican.

100% of the proceeds for DOG ACT are being donated to St Clement’s NYC: A congregation that has always celebrated the ministry of women, of gay and lesbian people, and those of all walks of life; a longtime center of service to the poor, celebrating social activism and creative liturgy - one of the most diverse Episcopal parishes in New York City. St Clements has operated a food pantry since 1986, one of its primary means of outreach.

DOG ACT will be performed live via Zoom
January 30, 2021 and February 7, 2021 at 7pm EASTERN TIME.

A Zoom Link will be sent one hour before showtime. Be sure to check your spam folder.

With an emphasis on the organic, edgy American style of acting developed by the Group Theatre, TSP allows audiences to experience modern classics with deeper understanding of how they relate to the struggles we face today. With that, tickets are as low as $10 as a part of TSP’s Affordable Theater Initiative, making theater accessible for all.

The Seeing Place celebrates its 10th Anniversary with a dedication to stories about the Body Politic. The 2020-2021 season includes the world premiere of ANIMAL FARM (February 2020), DUTCHMAN (Online – July 2020), A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM (Online – August 2020), KEELY AND DU (October) - and coming up are SWEAT by Lynn Nottage (Feb/Mar 2021), SPIN CYCLE by Cornelia Ravenal (Spring 2021) and live presentations of Margaret Edson’s Pulitzer Prize winner, WIT, and Anna Ziegler’s BOY (both being presented in Fall/Winter 2021.)
