Fear Factor: Canine Edition

The true story of a man and his dog. Facing his ultimate fears... love, loss... and dog yoga.

Jackpot. If you can get to only one Fringe show, make sure it’s this must-see tearjerker by New York actor John Grady. He moves between (poorly lit) areas of the Patrick’s Cabaret stage as he talks about Abby, his life-saving therapy dog. Man and dog spend 13 years together, sharing and surviving many crucibles. In the end, Abby gets terminally ill and Grady has to make a tough decision about her fate, and his. In his gray suit, Grady, who has played raconteur Spalding Gray onstage, delivers with moving honesty and heart-rending simplicity.
