The Dogs of War, Or, That's What Friends Are For

Between the costumes and lighting this was a visually stunning play, and the script was impressive in that almost every word rhymed. This piece was an interesting contrast to the play 8:03. 8:03 was pure physical comedy with no dialogue. Dogs of War represents the opposite extreme; it's all about the language. And I especially enjoyed the performances of the "joker" and the lead lady, Rebecca. ... full review

This show was more than I had hoped for. The actors where amazingly developed in their characters and brought depth to the already rich dialogue. The costumes where really cohesive, bringing the story's characters together into a futuristic, steam-punk, three penny opera. The sound really worked for the story, perhaps reminding us of a dark, strange, future. The richness of the script reminds you that you are watching a play, in a good way, through the use of rhyme, meter, song and style. It seemed a little long for the festival, though it seems like it could run longer on its own. Looking forward to future work from this troupe.... full review

Wife loved it; I was glad they kept their promise that it would be done in 90 minutes. We agreed that the guy with the box had the best enunciation; he spoke his rhymes slowly and/or clearly enough to have them be well-understood. ... full review
