Kitchen Dog Theater
3120 McKinney Ave Dallas, Texas 75204
Founded in 1990 by five graduates of SMU’s theater program, the Kitchen Dog Theater aims “to provide a place where questions of justice, morality, and human freedom can be explored. Each year the theater puts on a New Works Festival with readings of original scripts with one chosen to run as part of the theater’s season. The company’s unusual name comes from a song in Samuel Beckett;s “Waiting for Godot”
A dog came in the kitchen
And stole a crust of bread;
then cook up with a ladle
And beat him ‘till he was dead.
Then all the dogs came running
And dug the dog a tomb.”
Theater members encourage aspiring actors and playwrights by teaching high school workshops. Each year the theater puts on a New Works Festival with readings of original scripts submitted from around the world with one chosen to run as part of the theater’s season.
