Winding Road Theater Ensemble presents:
A**hole, The Dog 
 

"I know it can be hard for volunteers to see them crammed into tiny cages. You come here just wanting to help out but one of the first things you realize is there's no way to save them all."

LeeAnne is fresh out of prison and needs to log 200 hours of community service. The animal shelter should be an easy gig, but one aggressive, brutalized canine challenges her to overcome her own tragic background.  

Straton Rushing is an Arizona playwright originally from Sonora, Texas. In 2022 he was the recipient of the Bela Kiralyfalvi Playwriting Award, the Hear Me Out Golden Ear Award, and he received an Honorable Mention from the William Faulkner Literary Competition.
