| Mildred's Umbrella Theater Company and Bobbindoctin Puppet Theatre Present "The Best Original Show in 2007", touring Texas in 2008! |
"Rot"by John Harvey "..a mini-festival of the willfully weird and woeful." ".. exudes enough despair to make the average Samuel Beckett outing look like Annie." ~Everett Evans , Houston Chronicle "..the two companies together have created a smart, wildly literary piece of experimental theater the likes of which no Houstonian will see anywhere else this season. " - Lee Williams, Houston Press Rot won 'Best Original Show' in The Houston Press in 2007 when the two companies collaborated on its premier in 2007. Now, for all of you unfortunate souls who missed it the first time, we are doing a remount of the production for our "Rotten to the Core" tour, beginning at Diverseworks January 17, 18 and 19, 2008, and traveling to other Texas Cities in February and March, such as Rude Mechanicals in Austin, and The Strand Theatre in Galveston.

 INDEPENDENT THEATRE COALITION OF HOUSTONUNHINGED PRODUCTIONS "Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead" "A welcome antidote to the notion that the Peanuts gang provides merely a slice of American cuteness." —NY Times When CB's dog dies from rabies, CB begins to question the existence of an afterlife. His best friend is too burnt out to provide any coherent speculation; his sister has gone goth; his ex-girlfriend has recently been institutionalized; and his other friends are too inebriated to give him any sort of solace. But a chance meeting with an artistic kid, the target of this group's bullying, offers CB a peace of mind and sets in motion a friendship that will push teen angst to the very limits. Drug use, suicide, eating disorders, teen violence, rebellion and sexual identity collide and careen toward an ending that's both haunting and hopeful. Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm February 29 - March 22. Silver House Theatre Tickets: $20 Discounts are available for seniors, students and groups of 10 or more. Free preview February 28th at 8pm.
