Photo Flash: Out.com Photo Shoot with Broadway Dogs
By: Samantha Jacobsen Mar. 19, 2010
Out.com recently presented "Dog Day Matinée: Broadway Pets," an exclusive photo shoot with the dogs of Broadway stars dressed in Broadway-inspired costumes designed by Project Runway designers.
Several stars and their pets participated in the shoot, including WICKED's Dee Roscioli whose dog Marty posed as Rocky from THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW. Roscioli told Out.com that she suggested Rocky for Marty because he is "dumb, cute, and rocks hot pants like nobody's business."
HAIR star and Tony-Nominated actor Gavin Creel raved over his dog Wally's web-slinging look as Spider-Man. Creel told the website that "if [Wally] was going to be in a musical, he'd have to be a sexy character that's unconventional, and he's always wanted to work with Julie Taymor."
PROMISES PROMISES' Kristin Chenoweth's dog Maddie also posed as a recent Broadway character, the Bride of Frankenstein from YOUNG FRAKENSTEIN. Chenoweth explained that the character was especially fitting for her dog because "she's named after my hero, Madeline Kahn, who did a knockout role in Young Frankenstein."
