    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

      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.

    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
