'THE LITTLE DOG LAUGHED' Opens At Center Theater 12/23
The Tony Award-nominated farce “The Little Dog Laughed,” written by Douglas Carter Beane, opens at the Center Theatre Group/Kirk Douglas Theatre on Sunday, November 23, 2008 at 6:30 p.m., with performances continuing through December 21.
Directed by Scott Ellis, the cast includes (in alphabetical order) Johnny Galecki, Brian Henderson, Zoe Lister-Jones and Julie White.
Reprising her Tony Award-winning performance, Julie White portrays the brash, fast-talking Hollywood agent Diane, whose client (Henderson) has a chance to make it to superstar status, if only he stays in the closet. A sweet, sexy man (Galecki) enters his life and makes the ruse difficult, even as this new love interest has complications of his own — a naïve, needy girlfriend (Lister-Jones). But nothing derails Diane in her pursuit of power and money as she skillfully and hilariously manipulates all within her reach.
With twists and turns that keep audiences guessing, the production cleverly reflects America’s celebrity-obsessed culture. “The Little Dog Laughed” was originally produced off-Broadway in February 2006 at the Second Stage, and then moved to Broadway in November of the same year.
“The Little Dog Laughed” features set design by Allen Moyer, costumes by Jeff Mahshie, lighting by Donald Holder, original music and sound by Lewis Flinn and sound design by Cricket S. Myers. Casting is by Mele Nagler and the production stage manager is Gregory T. Livoti.
Tickets for “The Little Dog Laughed” range from $20 - $65 and are available by calling (213) 628-2772, online at www.CenterTheatreGroup.org, in person at the Center Theatre Group box office at the Ahmanson Theatre or two hours prior to performances at the Kirk Douglas Theatre box office.
The Kirk Douglas Theatre is located at 9820 Washington Blvd., Culver City, CA 90232. A newly designed bar area in the lobby of the theatre, “The Lounge,” features pre-show box dinners, sandwiches and other snacks. On Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, “The Lounge” will remain open after performances and features a full bar, music and lively conversation.
