ArtsWest Opens DOGFIGHT Tonight
By: BWW News Desk Oct. 23, 2014
ArtsWest has announced the Cast of the Northwest Premiere of Benj Pasek & Justin Paul's Dogfight, opening tonight, October 23.
Dogfight, based on the 1991 Warner Bros. film, tells the story of 3 Marines in 1963 who, on the eve of their deployment to Vietnam, look forward to their last evening of fun and debauchery. A romantic and heartbreaking story, Eddie Birdlace enlists a sweet awkward waitress, Rose Fenny, to join him at the party. Rewriting the rules of the game, Rose teaches young Eddie the meaning of compassion.
