Enjoy the Tail-Wagging Delight of Go, Dog. Go! at Walton Arts Center

Trike Theatre returns to Walton Arts Center with Go, Dog. Go! on Saturday, Jan. 19 and 26 at 10 a.m., 2 and 4 p.m. as part of the Mattel Kid’s Series.

Tickets are $9 for kids and $15 for adults and can be purchased in-person at the Walton Arts Center Box Office, by calling 479.443.5600 or by visiting waltonartscenter.org.

P.D. Eastman’s iconic tale of dogs has been a family favorite for more than 50 years. From red dogs to green dogs, big dogs to little dogs, Trike Theatre’s production will leave audiences of all breeds wagging their tails with delight.

“Since we adults are our child’s first teacher, the play also challenges us to put on our own imaginative, creative hats and dance at a few more dog parties,” Trike’s Artistic Director Kassie Misiewicz said.

Trike Theatre’s Go, Dog. Go! features a local creative team and cast of professional actors:

Creative Team:
• Director: Kris Stoker (Kansas City)
• Stage Manager: Katie Little
• Set Designer: Ashleigh Burns
• Lighting Designer: Shannon Miller

This is the second show Trike Theatre has presented at Walton Arts Center this season. In November the local theater company and artistic affiliate of Walton Arts Center presented Peter Pan.

The 10 a.m. show on Jan. 19 is a relaxed performance. This performance will incorporate modifications to serve adults and children with sensory-input disorders, autism or other developmental or cognitive disability, as well as anyone who might feel uncomfortable attending a typical live theater performance.
