Kathleen Chalfant (“Wit,” “Angels in America”) will topline the world preem of “Red Dog Howls,” a new play about the aftermath of the Armenian genocide, at El Portal Theater in L.A. this spring.
Produced by Gang of Five New York, Alexander Dinelaris’ play centers on a young man who must confront his family’s tragic past when he finds a box of old letters. Matthew Rauch (“Prelude to a Kiss”) and Darcie Siciliano co-star.
Dinelaris contributed to the book and lyrics of tuner “Zanna, Don’t!” and is currently working on a screenplay for Alejandro Gonzalez-Inarritu.
“Red Dog Howls” runs May 14-June 13, with a press opening set for May 19.
