Published Reviews

"The monologues have it all, humour, cunning, pathos... full of a dog's look on life. This theatre piece is for everyone."

The Canberra Review

"Has audiences howling with laughter."

Sydney Morning Herald

"...a dead set winner...this wickedly witty canine caper of a show could play on tour in front of bars across the nation forever...I LOVED it!"

The Messenger

"Flawless...captivating, extremely tight, engaging, and above all, entertaining."

The Wax Conspiracy

"A diverse variety of canine breeds, ages and personalities...all beautifully realized. In turns funny, poignant and endearing, much like the creatures that inspire them, the tales have more a wag than a sting in the tail. You don't need to be 'a doggy person' to get real enjoyment out of this show (I'm not, and I did!)"

Buzzcuts Fringe Reviews

"A treasure of a show."

Melbourne Age

"I loved the first version, but this is even better...this is definitely a 'must see show.' I award it Best Of Breed."
