Amy Raasch as Granddog, descendent of last living 9/11 Search and Rescue dog, Bretagne, in #TheAnimalMonologues. #Bretagne was the last surviving search and rescue dog who worked at Ground Zero. They ziplined her in to search for survivors. When none were found after weeks of searching, firefighters staged fake rescue missions to keep the dogs from growing despondent. The firefighters climbed into the wreckage and pretended to be discovered by the dogs. The dog character in #TheAnimalMonologues, who I call Granddog, is Bretagne’s descendent. She lives in the shadow of her grandmother’s legend, but is very proud of her and retains her family’s work ethic. She says, “just like dogs, most people want to be good.” Come and meet Granddog at the @bootlegtheater as part of #SoloQueensFest through 11/18 and give yourself an hour of laughs, thoughtful entertainment, and inspiration. Costume by #EdnaJones. Directed by @mccray.matthew. Music by @davidpoe . Tickets still available for today’s 3pm show! Advance discount tix avail via link in profile w/code TOTALFOX. See you soon!
