It's definitely not the "Peanuts" comic strip you read with your children.
NJ Productions will perform "Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead," an unauthorized parody by Bert V. Royal, at Circle Playhouse next weekend. Showtimes are 8 p.m. July 26, July 27, Aug. 2 and Aug. 3, and 3 p.m. July 28 and Aug. 4. Tickets are available online for $18 for general admission, and for $15 for students and seniors.
Directed by Ian Moore, this audacious and at times shocking play takes characters from the popular "Peanuts" comic strip and turns them into teenagers dealing with drug abuse, bullying, suicide, eating disorders, teen violence, rebellion, sex and sexual identity.
When C.B.’s dog contracts rabies and must be euthanized after ripping Woodstock to shreds and nearly biting his owner, C.B. begins to question the existence of an afterlife. A chance meeting with Beethoven, an artistic kid and also the target of his group’s bullying, offers C.B. peace of mind and sets in motion a friendship that pushes teen angst to the very limits.
"Dog Sees God" features the talents of Roberto Forero as C.B., Rachel Phelan as his sister, Zachariah Smith as Van, Kerielle Sollecito as Van’s sister, Michael Rosas as Beethoven, Sydney Hymanson as
Tricia, Danielle Yucht as Marcy, Nick Napoli as Matt, and Eddie Rogers and Gina Solebello as Swing.
The show is produced by Nicholas Kaminski and stage managed by Jasmine Gomez.
