'a hilarious farce, full of misunderstandings, screamingly embarrassing situations and brilliant characters. I, and the rest of the audience,
loved every moment of it.'
West End Wilma

Dog Ends will make you laugh out loud, recoil in shock, and then laugh again.
Exactly as a dark comedy should.

Farce and satire abound in the premiere of Richard Harris’
bitterly funny black comedy Dog Ends.

The time is tomorrow. Middle aged George is under increasing emotional and financial pressure looking after his father and his beloved dog. When George confides in neighbourhood friend Henry that the dog is nearing the end of his time, he is passed the contact of a highly-recommended vet. However, there is a serious misunderstanding over just what it is the vet actually does and who he works for.

Last seen as part of the BBC's popular Play For Today series, Dog Ends has been adapted and updated by Richard Harris for its premiere at the Tabard Theatre.
