Hollywood Fringe Festival - The Dog Log

The Broadwater - Studio
1078 Lillian Way

The Amazon #1 best selling comedic memoir comes to life as author and performer Richard Lucas takes you on his personal journey of redemption via barking dogs, barking neighbors, and his barking self.

The Dog Log, written as a daily notation to the West Hollywood Sheriff's Department, begins as a simple complaint about a barking dog, but it soon becomes a powerful self-exploration and confessional. It's a touching, hilarious, and cleverly sneaky memoir of a man in Los Angeles who rediscovers himself when his elderly neighbor falls and he must reluctantly tend to her two badly behaved Yorkshire terriers. What he discovers in her apartment shocks him into a surprising decision, and by addressing her problems, he inadvertently resolves his own. With humor and honesty, The Dog Log looks into big-city loneliness, heartbreak, and old age, but then climbs into the light. When one knocks on a neighbor's door, one's life may change forever. It's an epic journey of 40 feet. 

It's not necessary-but if you wish to read the book for an enhanced experience before attending the show, it is available in physical and ebook format at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and most independent book stores and libraries. Full title: The Dog Log: An Accidental Memoir of Yapping Yorkies, Quarreling Neighbors, and the Unlikely Friendships That Saved My Life. From Chicago Review Press, Publishers of The Dog Log: "A hilarious, acerbic, heartbreaking, and ultimately joyous memoir of finding companionship through the frustrations of living next to a barking dog and an oblivious neighbor."
