Mitchell Green is a Hollywood star on his way to the A-list -- if he can only keep that pesky “recurring case of homosexuality” under wraps. When Mitchell falls for a young call-boy while in New York for a premiere, his acerbic, fast-talking Hollywood agent, Diane, takes matters into her own hands. Meanwhile, the call-boy, Alex, is trying to figure out what he wants: Mitchell, or best friend/lover Ellen. He is torn between his desires for glitter and money and his longing for love, with all its requisite complications. Throughout all this, the tabloid-mad public keeps at everyone’s heels, waiting anxiously for someone to fall. Douglas Carter Beane’s The Little Dog Laughed is a biting, timely comedy, that takes aim at the entertainment industry, sex and sexuality, and the way happy endings “should” look.
To be considered for an audition appointment, please submit your resume and headshot to [email protected]
We look forward to hearing from you!!!
