“Postcards from a Dead Dog,” written by award-winning playwright F. J. Hartland, is a humorous look at the dysfunctional yet devoted relationship between a mother and son. It is sweet, sad and funny all at the same time.
Hamilton-Gibson Productions is giving two performances of this half-hour, one-act, two-person comedy-drama on Zoom. Both are free. The first will be at 7:30 p.m. Saturday and the second at 2:30 p.m. Sunday.
“Of course, everyone has a mother, but Clay’s mom, Nell, is unlike any other mother you’ve ever known,” said Director Thomas Putnam, according to a news release. After the loss of the family pet, Nell (Jen Painter) discovers an unusual way to communicate with her son Clay (Josh Magnotta) and Clay returns the favor.
