A young man rushes to reach the bedside of his dying father, but arrives too late. His younger brother was present at the death, but his attitude is strangely ambiguous, and the elder brother becomes suspicious. The intentions of the dead man's mistress are also unclear. The mourners become increasingly consumed by feverish imagining, building a powerfully tense atmosphere as their characters start to disintegrate. This new play by international dramatist, poet and theorist, Howard Barker, toured in a production by The Wrestling School theatre company in 2005.

She has beauty, brains, wealth, and a successful career as a jewelry designer for the leading lights of New York society. She also has a penchant for attractive young men.

Editor's Pick: "DAY OF THE DOG, an absorbing play." Judith Newmark, Saint Louis Post Dispatch ..".the real star of the evening is Daniel Damiano's text. His voice is distinct and refreshing with a tone that reminds me of an Edward Albee with a bit more rooting in reality. ...A playwright to watch." Greg Solomon, Theatre is Easy "The show hits the ground running and doesn't stop for what is a riveting two hours. ...the work is virtually flawless, as is its execution. ...Mr Damiano's play masterfully disassembles the porous foundation of this family. He shows us the humor of a dysfunctional marriage, of a couple living in denial, without ever resorting to caricature. ...Organic dialogue flows effortlessly from the mouths of rich, truthful characters." Dmitry Zvonkov, Stage & Cinema
