This critically acclaimed musical review consists of 22 musical scenes dealing with the very special relationship between people and their pets. It’s clever, user-friendly and suits audiences of all ages. Cats, dogs, mice, turtles, iguanas, parakeets and other species are having the times of their lives. The scenes range from a dog hungrily eyeing his owner’s bagel in “There’s a Bagel on the Piano” to the hilarious, harried Rumanian dog walker in “I Walk Ze Dogs” to the lonely Argentinian iguana pining for his mate in “Night of the Iguana.”
