Ugg ‘n’ Ogg and The World’s First Dogg

In the fresh sparkling world just after the last Ice Age there were no dogs – not a single one. So how did we get our best friend and the World’s No 1 pet, the dog?

Well, luckily for us, along came two young hunter-gatherers called Ugg ’n’ Ogg to pall up with the wolves Tooth ‘n’ Claw and embark on a fun-packed adventure where despite flying meat bones, raging forest infernos, and even a time-travelling stick, they finally get to invent the dog and save us all from a life of doglessness.

This original play for families and dog lovers of all ages is inspired by the truly amazing evolutionary process that transformed the wolf into all the dogs that we see in the world today.

Ugg ’n’ Ogg ends with a celebration of the invention of the dog and we invite children to come on stage to meet the world’s first Dogg. Please bring your favourite soft toy dog (cats are welcome too!) to join in the celebration.

Brought to you by award winning children’s theatre company Fideri Fidera, Ugg ‘n’ Ogg and the World’s First Dogg has a rich mix of physical comedy, puppets, and music & song.

Recommended age 3+
