Dogfight is a play of a very high pedigree. This slice of suburban Americana is played out in the homes and village council meetings of Black Hill, a white picket fence every-town in Middle America. Residents' squabbling over their pets masks deeper themes like the pressure of success and the complex psychological politics of these tight-knit towns. The real enjoyment of this play was watching these 'normal' people turn rabid. This fast-paced production was brilliantly acted - the short scenes could have been a hindrance, but the rapid changeover process actually added to the experience and the writing was sharp enough to keep the characters just the right side of cheesy. If the Fringe were Crufts this play would definitely deserve a rosette.
