About this show
An original musical inspired by the extraordinary true story of a war hero dog who served during World War I. Set against the backdrop of the battlefields of Europe, the show follows Rags, a stray who finds purpose, companionship and courage alongside a young soldier in the US Army Signal Corps. Together, they navigate the chaos of war, delivering critical messages across dangerous terrain and forming an unbreakable bond that transcends language and circumstance. Developed and performed by a passionate ensemble of student artists, the production highlights collaborative storytelling and dynamic movement.
