“It's sort of an allegory for, 'Let's treat each other in life like a bunch of rescue dogs,'” playwright Tate Hanyok said of her work “Dog Mom,” which opens at the Oregon Contemporary Theatre this Saturday. “Everybody's got a little bit of damage, and we all need some love."

Our friends at the Eugene Opera are offering a special discount on THREE DECEMBERS, a powerful story that explores family, love, and secrets across three decades. Use the promo code XMASINMAY to get $5 off all tickets! 🎄

Inspired by the unpublished play Some Christmas Letters by Terrence McNally, THREE DECEMBERS tells the story of Broadway star Madeline Mitchell and her two adult children, Beatrice and Charlie, spanning the years 1986, 1996, and 2006. As Maddie reaches the height of her career, long-buried secrets surface and the family grapples with love, loss, and the struggle to truly connect.

Come see DOG MOM, the final show of our season!

Written by Tate Elizabeth Hanyok, DOG MOM follows Liz, a tough-as-nails New Yorker whose life is unraveling faster than her morning bagel. When a scruffy stray dog shows up on her stoop, Liz — the least dog person on the planet — reluctantly agrees to foster it. This temporary inconvenience quickly turns into a heartwarming and hilarious journey of self-discovery. Who says you can’t teach an old dog (or a stubborn New Yorker) new tricks?

DOG MOM hits the OCT stage May 30 - June 14, with Name Your Own Price Performances May 27 & 28! Tickets here: octheatre.org/dogmom
