Recommendations of A Certain Pedigree

  • Rachael Carnes: A Certain Pedigree

    Pure delight. From bouncy dialogue to the vision of costumes replete with ears and tails, I'm in. Who wouldn't want to act in, direct and/or see a Dog Play?! This is the 10-er we needed, like a coming of age trip to the dog park. Charming, relatable, and perfect for all ages. So fun.

  • Brian Cern: A Certain Pedigree

    This fun and insightful show, with it's message of tolerance and acceptance, that should be put on by every children's theater possible, only reinforces my feeling that my four year old dog is part of a large plan to overthrow the world.
    Lovely piece by Feeny-Williams. Well done!

  • Lee R. Lawing: A Certain Pedigree

    I always imagine that that my dogs are speaking to me most days and gladly carry on conversations with them even though the experts say that's not really the best way to communicate with them but Feeny-Williams's charming play gives me hope that just maybe they are getting a lot more our conversations than the experts say they are getting. If nothing else we have some wonderful life-lessons that we can learn and remember from reading about this lazy summer afternoon spent with the neighborhood dogs who have come out to relax and enjoy the summer and bond.

  • Karen Fix Curry: A Certain Pedigree

    What a lovely dog-gone play! Really though, it is a wonderful way to teach tolerance, and I'd love to see it done for Theater for Young Audiences. Acceptance, belonging, supporting, and encouraging all wrapped into ten minutes.

  • Nora Louise Syran: A Certain Pedigree

    Great fun! A short piece where actors will be able to explore their 'inner dog' and learn not to act like cats. Short and sweet.

  • Debra A. Cole: A Certain Pedigree

    ADORABLE! This coming of age piece is extra delightful as it from the perspective of dogs. So many wonderful characters are ready and waiting for seasoned actors/actresses thanks for RACHEL. This short play would charm audiences of all ages at any play festival.

  • Joe Swenson: A Certain Pedigree

    Love this play and the consistency of the characters to their dog breed. What fun. Interestingly Rachel builds an environment where dogs/humans are interchangeable. As someone who loves dogs though I love the idea that they remain dogs. RFW is a tremendous artist and so diverse. Congratulations on another compelling piece of art!

  • Jaxson Mackling: A Certain Pedigree

    Rachel Williams’ short piece “A Certain Pedigree” is such a powerful play. A wonderful juxtaposition between what it means to be liked and to be somewhat…different. Benji is the new pup of the family that might seem him as useless to his owners, only to realize he has a true friend group by his side.

    A lovely play that audiences will rave over. Produce and produce again! Well done!

  • Dana Hall: A Certain Pedigree

    I had a french poodle and this was totally her personality. So much fun and a great perspective on inclusivity. We fear what we don't know or perhaps are threatened by it but if we learn to move past that and open our hearts it can enrich our lives.

  • Bruce Karp: A Certain Pedigree

    This play is quite a delight and provides lessons to us all about camaraderie, acceptance and family. The characters could be dogs or humans and learn the proper lesson that inclusion is better. I really enjoyed Ms. Feeny-Williams' writing and the comic buildup leading to a satisfying ending.
