This hilarious, warmhearted new musical chronicles the joys and challenges of dog ownership. But just who owns whom?

When Joel adopts Jack the dog at the pound, he soon realizes life will never be the same. Dog parks, trips to the vet, separation anxiety – it’s all here in a celebration of the inseparable bond between man and mutt.

A DOG’S LIFE is a four person, one piano musical for animal lovers and those waiting to fall in love, laughing all the way.

The Roles

Jack (M 18-25)
A sweet tempered, fairly simple dog. A mutt, he isn't well trained in anything but is very loyal and sees the good in things. Has a hard time seeing anything else. Takes things at face value. Tenor or high baritone to A.

Big Dog (M 30+)
He's an older and wiser dog. Having seen a lot, is a bit more cynical about things than the others. Probably a Doberman or Rottweiler mix. he' big but doesn't throw it around casually. A laid back Alpha. Baritone to G.

Little Dog (F 18-25)
She's a diminutive dog with an anger management problem. Talks too much, a bit overactive. mostly Jack Russell or some other nervous, highly strung breed. Despite this she's sensitive and wants to be loved. Mezzo, with a belt, to F.

Joel (M 20's-40's)
The show's lone human. He's vulnerable and oddly charming, somewhat abrupt, self-involved, closed off to life. A baritone to F.
