Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead

The Shelton Theater
533 Sutter St. San Francisco

Lovably morose CB and the rest of the gang become teenagers in the tragicomedy Dog Sees God, and their adolescence isn't pretty. Everyone's favorite dog has died from rabies, spurring CB to question the existence of an afterlife. Meanwhile, his best friend is a burn-out, his sister has gone goth, his ex-girlfriend has been institutionalized and his other friends are too inebriated to give him any sort of guidance or comfort. A run-in with a bullied artistic kid offers CB peace of mind and sets in motion a friendship that will push teen angst to the very limits. Drug use, suicide, eating disorders, teen violence, rebellion and sexual identity collide and careen toward an ending that's both haunting and hopeful as Dog Sees God comes to the Shelton Theater in San Francisco.
