Dog and Wolf Meets the Community: Watson Arts will present 7 readings of Catherine Filloux's new play, Dog and Wolf. When Jasmina, a political refugee seeking asylum in the U.S., suddenly disappears, her lawyer must track her down. Who is the dog? Who is the wolf? A psychological and political play of intrigue, identity and pursuit. The full schedule can be found below. The readings run one hour, are followed by discussion, and everything is free. These presentations are part of an innovative effort by the playwright, to bring a theater experience to areas where theatergoing isn't necessarily part of the everyday culture, and to focus on the neighborhood's feelings and concerns surrounding issues raised in the play. Childcare and refreshments will be provided at some venues. The play is directed by Jean Randich and performed by a company of actors including: Snezana Bogdanovic, Nadia Bowers, Aysan Celik, Lynn Cohen, John Daggett, Daniela Dakic, Elizabeth Hess and Antoinette LaVecchia. Production manager: Sarah E. Peterson and stage manager: Jes Levine. Dog and Wolf was produced earlier this year in a sold-out run at 59E59 Theaters in NYC. The first community reading was at Still Waters in a Storm in Brooklyn this summer. Please feel free to request a copy of the script or call/email with any questions.
