Space Dogs, a new musical is coming to The Other Palace

The musical will run from 28th July to 9th August

SPACE DOGS is an epic new musical that tells the mind-blowing-yet-true story of Laika and the Chief Designer — a stray dog and the top-secret Russian scientist who sent her to the stars during the Cold War Space Race.

The rock musical docu-comedy is a two-hander written by Van Hughes and Nick Blaemire, who play and sing all the songs, as well as all of the characters: the Chief Designer, Laika, various high-level politicians and covert scientists, and 40 Russian dogs, using puppets, props and imagination.

SPACE DOGS is a sweeping, kaleidoscopic tale of invention, betrayal, international political intrigue, and the immortal friendship that exists between man and dog, as they journey together to the stars. 

The musical is directed by Will Blum. Produced by Paul Taylor-Mills and Tricia Small
