CASTING CALL: – “Dawg Pounded”
“Dawg Pounded” is an original comedic play (with parody songs) that tells the story of two die-hard Cleveland Browns’ fans (Paul & Otto) who must cope with the ups and downs (mostly downs) of a typical Browns’ season. In addition to suffering the chaos on the field, they both suffer the slings of outrageous taunting from their chief nemesis, Pittsburgh Pete, as they watch the games at their local sports bar. The play includes a number of parody songs performed by fellow Browns’ fans. The play is a comedic examination on what it means to be a Browns’ fan – the torment, the doubt, and the anger, all wrapped up in the irrational comfort of hope and optimism that, one day, it will all be worth it.
The play had a 2 year run (premiered in 2014 at Kennedy’s Theatre) in PlayhouseSquare This year the show will be performed at Vosh in Lakewood, Ohio for a total of 8 shows opening Aug. 30. Rehearsals will begin in August. (Listed below is a schedule of performances)
