The Cast of ART DOG will perform a FREE reading of the book by Thacher Hurd as well as scenes from our upcoming production. ABOUT THE PLAY: SLAC will welcome its youngest audiences to ART DOG adapted for the stage by John Olive, composed by Susan Ennis, and based on the book by Thatcher Hurd. By day, Arthur Dog is a mild-mannered museum guard; by night, he is Art Dog – a mysterious artist who makes the city his canvas. However, when Leonardo Dog Vinci's Mona Woofa goes missing from the Dogopolis Museum of Art, Art Dog is a prime suspect.
