Romance is a distant memory for two lonely animal-lovers living in Dublin. When forlorn Dan and his dog Chapatti cross paths with the amiable Betty and her nineteen cats, an unexpected spark begins a warm and gentle story about two people re-discovering the importance of human companionship.

Come enjoy this staged reading of one of the scripts First Folio is considering producing in future seasons!

*Denotes a member of Actors’ Equity Association, the Union of Professional Actors and Stage managers.

†A fully staged theatrical reading involves the actors using their scripts, but participating in full movement on a stage that has a limited scenic design.
