What started as a dream between passionate local artists has grown into a community of performers, creatives, volunteers, and supporters who believe in the power of live theatre. Now, Black Dog Theatre is preparing for our biggest production yet: Nunsense! ✨🙌🏻

Producing a musical of this scale means bigger sets, costumes, lights, sound, choreography, live music, and more opportunities for local artists to shine. We’ve launched a Kickstarter with the goal of raising $2,000 to help bring this hilarious, heart-filled production to life.

If Black Dog Theatre has ever made you laugh, feel inspired, or feel like part of something special, we’d be so grateful for your support. Whether it’s a $1 donation, sharing our campaign, volunteering your time, or simply showing up to our productions: every bit helps us continue building community through theatre.

Thank you for helping us create opportunities for artists and meaningful experiences for audiences. We truly could not do this without you.! 🖤🐾🎭

📣 Black Dog Theatre is thrilled to announce our 2026–2027 Season! 📣

This season, we’re bringing you stories that are funny, moving, chaotic, heartfelt, and full of humanity. Stories about connection, family, resilience, identity, and the wild, messy ways we find our way through.

Oct 23 - 25, 2026: Ordinary Days
A funny, intimate, and moving musical about four New Yorkers whose lives intersect in unexpected ways — reminding us how one small moment can change everything.

Dec 11 - 13, 2026: Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some!)
A fast, ridiculous, joyfully chaotic holiday comedy that gleefully takes on just about every Christmas story you know.

April 16 - 18, 2027: Next to Normal
A powerful contemporary musical about family, grief, mental health, and the complicated ways we try to hold each other together.

July 23 - 25, 2027: The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940
A wildly funny theatrical murder mystery packed with secret passageways, show biz egos, surprise twists, and old school comic chaos, where the only thing more dangerous than a killer in the house is a room full of theatre people trying to put on a show.

We’re so excited for everything Season 2 at Black Dog Theatre has in store! 🐾🎭
