GO DOG, GO!

Hordes of class-trip kids brought a frisson of electricity to Palo Alto Children’s Theatre today.
I had the distinct pleasure of hanging in the tech booth with lighting designer Pamela Gray during this first performance of Go, Dog. Go!
Both of us had a hard time restraining ourselves. This script may only have 75 unique words, but taken together, they had the audience jumping up and down in their seats as dogs of all colors cycled through their irrepressible antics with hats that rival Beach Blanket Babylon.
Music director Cole Grissom led the on-stage band that propelled the action ever forward. Go, Dog. Go! sets the bar high for musicals. Come unleash your inner dog! This is a must see for those three and older.
Go, Dog. Go!
Palo Alto Children’s Theatre

Big dogs, little dogs, yellow dogs, blue dogs. Dogs at work, dogs at play, dogs in hats, dogs in cars! It’s an all out dog party in this colorful hilarious adaption of P.D. Eastman’s beloved book.
