They make musical plays just for training dogs to sit thru? Such dedication!

    To be fair, that mess is difficult to watch to the end for humans who love musicals too..

    Makes you wonder if they use the actors' rehearsals, just have the interns pretend to do a play by reading a script and doing some motions, book an acting troupe's time, or buy out a theater that's having an actual performance.

    It's probably rehearsals, but I want to believe they put on a full performance and do a curtain call for the dogs.

    I've known enough actors etc that I would be surprised if they didn't go all out for the doggos. It might "officially" be a rehearsal, but they are likely putting in as much effort, or more, as a full performance.

    There was this Dutch artist who did it the other way around. He made a play that was featuring as the actors six trained German shepherds.

    The play was called: going to the dogs

    I recently read A Fire Upon the Deep and it's sequel, The Children of the Sky, and this picture is very fitting with those books (they feature a lot of sentient wolves)

    I love how humans are just these tall clumsy things on stilts, perpetually free-falling to the ground only to catch themselves with a leg and then to repeat the whole process.

    Also I'm surprised no one has invented a dog bus to create a portable 5*4 cabin of pure brainpower that you can cart around
